> [~michael-o] [~cstamas] I was about to start porting my simple SyncContext to maven-resolver and start working on a PR when I saw that the API has changed a lot with the introduction of NamedLocks.
> I see some design problems in the new API. Multiple locks are now acquired in sequence instead of using a coarse grained call.  This can lead to deadlocks as one client could try to lock {{a}} then {{b}} while another one could try to lock {{b}} then {{a}}, leading to a possible deadlock. 
> It should be just a matter to order them inside the {{AdaptedLockSyncContext.acquire}} call which is the only location where the API is used.
> I'll provide a PR asap.
