I can't wait to see what else is with this SDK update, i hope it allows the option of creating map files that are untouchable so we can have people test our maps!
Why do you need to make your maps untouchable to have people test them and give on-the-ground feedback?
It seems unlikely we will have such an option, as UWE seems to be embracing an open source approach with NS2 (in releasing all the game code in Lua)...

He fears someone taking his demo map that he spent days working on, changing the room names and releasing it on him as a finished map, so he gets called a knockoff on a map when he finally releases it.
There a good reason to have maps made 'untouchable' but it more likely it will just set a bit somewhere and if the bit is set the editor will refuse to open the map for editing. Good enough to stop 95% of the people you need to worry about, so long as you don't tell them where it is.

IMO that's entirely the wrong attitude. Open-source maps should be the only way of having a map period.
Oh and, you won't ever have anything untouchable. We're on the Internet. The way to stop knock-offs is to upload/save your file first somewhere that keeps track of submission date.
You soon end up with several dozen different versions of the map, all slightly different. It's frickin annoying.
