That should be a option to the average user (none mod/admin).It would be usefull if you feel the topic should be locked and it would save time by not having to wait for a mod to lock it.
GameFAQs has it, and doesn't do damage over there, so I don't see what harm it would do here (On GF you have to wait 5 minutes without any posts in the topic before you can lock it, though it used to be 20).
If I feel a topic is not needed and don't want to wait for someone to lock it I just go ahead and delete it. I guess it's a good idea, but deleting it would work the same in most ever case.
