Suggestion: Add option to "Lock Workspace even with editor open ( discard unsaved data)"

"Why is KeePass not locking after timeout" is frequent question, and also frequent annoyance even for users who do know reason ( ie editor window is open).
While FAQ explain that "sub-dialog is typically only required for editing something", that is not the case for those who keep additional information in "Notes" section - they always need to open editor to read that information, and often leave KeePass in that state.
Adding above option will allow users way to ensure safety of their data if they leave KeePass open, regardless of WHERE in application they left it open.

    You do not need to edit an entry in order to see its notes. The notes are displayed in the entry details view of the main window (gray box, by default at the bottom of the main window).

    In any case, this is a duplicate of

    Best regards,

    You don't need to edit KeePass to read Notes, they are viewable / copy-able from the quick view pane after selecting an entry.

    cheers, Paul
