+-   `noContent` — prevents all operations. Additionally, the block types that don't have content are hidden from the list view and can't gain focus within the block list. Unlike the other lock types, this is not overrideable by children.
 -   `'all'` — prevents all operations. It is not possible to insert new blocks. Move existing blocks or delete them.
 -   `'insert'` — prevents inserting or removing blocks, but allows moving existing ones.
 -   `false` — prevents locking from being applied to an `InnerBlocks` area even if a parent block contains locking. ( Boolean )
