I would like to lock an important Docs in Google Drive, so that modification I made in fly-by-mistakes don't get saved. I am the owner of the document.
Is this possible? Or is there a feature request for it somewhere?

Publishing is one way to prevent unwanted changes. The other way (if this is a Document) is to open it in View mode.
For example, when you open a document you should see the edit mode:
If you enter the URL with
view
at the end then it will open for you in View-only:It's not an elegant solution, but I thought I'd leave it here.
