 When GUI is requested and location provided, GRASS starts even when
 location is locked.

 Start GRASS in one terminal:
 {{{
 grass71 [.../grassdata/nc_spm_08_grass7/user1]
 }}}

 Start GRASS in another terminal, specify (the same) mapset in command line
 and ensure you start GUI:
 {{{
 grass71 .../grassdata/nc_spm_08_grass7/user1 -gui
 }}}

 This behavior is already present in r65235
 (source:grass/trunk/lib/init/grass.py?rev=65235#L884).

 For 7.0 branch it might be enough to just call exit after showing the
 error message in GUI. However, for trunk, there are some related
 refactoring and interface changes which would be good to do.

 What needs to be changes is here:
  * trunk source:grass/trunk/lib/init/grass.py#L1128
  * 70 branch:
 source:grass/branches/releasebranch_7_0//lib/init/grass.py#L882


 Note that for debugging the `grass.py` you can use `GRASS_DEBUG` variable
 set to something.
