Enable Kiosk from VC

[crackley]

I've created a fork and have been working on adding an option to enable and disable Kiosk from a button in the VC. The feature is protected with a user created PIN so that not anyone can disable the kiosk. My use case is for environments where guest are using the venue and need to be able control the lights but not edit anything, however, when an authorized user comes in they can have full control without having to close and reopen the program.

Is this a feature that anyone else would find helpful and I should work towards submitting to the project?

I've encountered two similar situations in the venue I work. In the first one, someone touched the main PC while I was doing the lights from my tablet via webaccess. In the second one, as described by you, I had to give the lighting control to a DJ. My initial idea was a "consolle lock" button, that disables any control over the primary machine and allows only webaccess. The feature you developed may be really usefull for me in the second situation I described.
