Locking prevents user error. You place the widgets, arrange things, and then toggle the lock. They don't shift around anymore. Gnome uses a similar concept with the icons and notifications in the task bar.
You don't have to run KDE4 with your desktop widgets locked down... you can just as easily leave them unlocked all the time, but.. you've only yourself to blame when you accidentally click and drag an icon off the taskbar... or hover and mis-click on the exit button on a widget flyout.
C. yes, i prefer leaving them unlocked. Locking is a good idea for a kiosk type situation but at home, its a bit of overkill unless i'm supporting my gran.
