DOMLock

Manages a lock on a DOM tree. You take a read lock along with others when you want to work with the DOM but ar ok with other users reading / writing themselves. You take a write lock when you need exclusive access to the DOM. This is meant only for serialization when a DOM snapshot must be consistent and come between updates. The lock you hold is actually on the entire DOM root document, as well as a standard monitor lock on the "LockObject".
