Yeah, I don't think I saw a lock/refresh sequence, but I may be wrong.

I just noticed that the lock is not released if there is an error here.

This one is supposed to contain only one commit, so I'm not really
conviced that this parameter should be in the plural form.

Right -- I'll see what I can do here.
