Would a '*' that acts like --lockref on a per ref basis address your
concerns?

I realize that that design would hurt a project of making '+' use
lockref automatically some day.  I think that's ok, and that '+'
meaning "push whatever I have, regardless of what's on the other end,
and I mean it" would be better semantics in the long term (which
doesn't match the current behavior either :/).
