Rubberduck: "Add/Remove Reference" dialogue allows removal of locked references. Sorta...
Version 2.3.1.4330
OS: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.15063.0, x64
Host Product: Microsoft Office 2016 x64
Host Version: 16.0.4711.1000
Host Executable: MSACCESS.EXE
Still loving the new dialogue, and it even protects me from making bone-headed n00b mistakes, but it isn't quite obvious that it's doing so.
I start with a brand new Access project and its default references:
I make bone-headed n00b mistake:
Right here, I probably shouldn't be allowed to make this action in the first place - disable the "Remove selected reference" button when I've selected a Locked reference.
Clicking the Apply button has no noticeable effect (Apply button remains enabled, no notification that I've done something - valid or invalid).
Click OK button to close dialogue box.
Re-open the dialogue:
Whew! I haven't been allowed to totally bork my project!

Just to note that there's probably 2 separate issues in this one bug report:
1) we shouldn't allow moving of padlocked references (obviously)
2) there should be an error message if the Apply/Ok wasn't entirely successful, so the users aren't surprised when there has been a different error and the dialog apparently not doing what they thought it did.
