Symphony doesn't natively supported pessimistic database locking, so I created an extension in symphony to handle it, both in the backend and the frontend. It's somewhat complicated to implement, but so far it works pretty great. I created it because one of the next big projects I'm working on will be used by many people at once, and I was considering using symphony to create it, as opposed to Rails.

Many CMS’ don’t offer a way to manage picture galleries easily, and neither does symphony out of the box. But, after playing with symphony some, I decided that I liked it and the next project I would do would be with symphony.

So I created a plugin (in symphony: extension) that allows you to upload multiple files, and create entries (in this example, gallery items, or rows in the database, etc) to allow you to accomplish this easily.

You can download it at Github.
