I agree.  So much so that I wrote a patch for you.

Change .lock suffix to ..lck

In 3e262b95c509 I taught Git to deny creation of refs whose name
ends in ".lock", as the loose ref scanner skips over these under
the assumption that they are refs being modified by a concurrent
process operating on the same repository.

Linus pointed out that the name "fix.vm.lock" is an otherwise
perfectly valid branch name, except the ".lock" suffix conflicts
with the internal implementation detail of how Git manages doing
an atomic update.

Instead, change the name to "..lck", as suggested by Junio.

This uses the same storage space in memory as ".lock", so we can do
a fairly dumb search-replace to make the change, but the ".." prefix
has been forbidden in a ref name for ages, to prevent "a..b" from
being ambiguous as a single ref name, or as the pair "^a b".
