If you remember the patch, we added a read-write protection to the 
measurements interfaces. As long as you keep the interface open for 
write no one else can make change on the staging. Sure, you can drop the 
write, and reopen for read, but then you should expect someone else to 
operate on the interface.

If you want to be sure no one else changes the staged measurements, just 
keep the interface open for write, read the staged measurements and 
delete them.
