Please remove the second warning asking users "are you really sure you
want to proceed?" when launching GRASS with a locked mapset. The first
message is sufficient.

Comment:

Two dialogs have a meaning. The user should be absolutely sure what he/she
is doing. I would keep it as it is and close this ticket as wontfix.

Comment (by annakrat):

I think the first message is sufficient. I don't remember seeing 2 dialogs
in any other software. Especially when in this case the risk is fairly low
that something bad will happen.

Also, many times the lock is there because users didn't close GRASS
correctly and then this message doesn't make much sense.

Finally, if it's that important, why it's not implemented on Windows?
