I am quite sure that you can edit files in an svn repo to your heart’s content regardless of whether anyone else is editing them on their machine at the same time.

A pretty good tradeoff, because you can set it on complex structured files (e.g. PSDs and the like) to avoid the ballache of getting a conflict in an unmergeable file but it does not block code edition. And importantly anyone can steal locks by default. So a colleague forgetting to unlock and going on holidays does not require finding a repo admin.
