Small outliner enhancement: With items selected in the outliner, pressing the V, S or R key will toggle, respectively, the Visibility, Selectability or Renderability locks. Note that this functions independently of what is selected in the SCENE -- this is based on the RMB selection in the outliner. The options are also available from the RMB popup menu.

There are enough items in that popup now that this space should probably have its own header with a menu.
