If a file needs renaming, either do it automatically or manually from there. With this feature in mind, a recommended workflow is to do most of your work in the Pending section of the Dashboard. In the dashboard, you can bulk lock/unlock any number of your entries at once. An entry will be locked automatically if you rename it manually, or if you undo its renaming. It will either lock the entry, or unlock it. Media File Renamer’s logic will lock it for you automatically when it’s logical to do so. When you are done editing a Media entry, you can lock it to prevent further changes. When a Media entry is “locked”, it will no longer be able to be renamed, and will not be part of any bulk actions.
