      It should be dead simple to make a planning entity immovable if a boolean field on it is true.
      Almost everybody needs this and the movableEntitySelectionFilter=... approach is too much work for something so common.

      Instead we want:

      @PlanningEntity
      private class Shift{
         @PlanningPinned
         private boolean lockedByHuman;
      
      }
      

      Advanced case:

      @PlanningEntity
      private class Shift{
         @PlanningPinned
         private boolean lockedByHuman;
         @PlanningPinned
         private boolean borrowedByAnotherDepartment;
         @PlanningPinned
         private boolean lockedBecauseItsHistory;
      
      }
      

      Open question: how shall we call that annotation? @PlanningPinned or @PlanningLocked or @PlanningImmovable?
