    Why would an enderchest need a lock? It’s not like anyone can take your stuff

    Also, if this is an unintentional bug, you cannot lock brewing stands anymore

    I used to lock all my enderchest as public so that the chest would not be stolen and yet it was available to all. I tried it one day on an echest, but did not file a bug report thinking it would work itself out pretty quick...but does not seem to be a high priority.

    I don't want people coming to my base just to use my ender chest

    Enderchests are not available as a lockable item on ECC.

    If you'd like to see a change to this please use the suggestion section, although I really don't see any reason that enderchests should ever be locked.

    In fact, now that I think about it, this will just require me to /cpublic every enderchest at spawn, to prevent trolls locking them. Suggestion will almost surely be denied due to this fact.
