[Namron] Lock on the Privy

[Epperson, Sheryl]

To keep someone from accidentally locking you inside, you take the lock
in with you, of course.  That can also be another indicator that it's
occupied.

And I like Adena's idea of a combo lock, and agree it should be one with
rotating wheels.  That way the combination can be posted somewhere (the
hospitality tent perhaps? Just inside the doorway).  And we don't have
to worry about a key getting lost or someone forgetting to return it to
where it's supposed to be located.

All us geeks know about that technique for bypassing biometric
authentication. It's standard cyber yakuza stuff.

But let's return to the practical issue that combo locks are a pain.
Imagine this:

You have been enjoying your turkey legs and funnel cake.

Everything is just great until...Suddenly, you have an urgent need to
get into the privy!! You run to the privy and are greeted with the combo
lock. You try the combo, and it doesn't work. Was it right-left-right or
left-right-left? Did you enter it wrong? Maybe you went two increments
too far in one direction: 10-32-12 instead of 10-30-12.

It always seems like those things are finicky and tricky to use.
Anybody ever try to open the combo lock on Dunchadh's trailer?

If we have to have a combo lock, it might be better to do one of the
ones with three rotating wheels so you don't have to start over on each
failed attempt.

Also. What if someone locks it from the outside while you're in there?
