So the lock is generic.. I'd then expect the unlock to be generic, too?

Does the first/last logic handle errors well? i.e. what if we
have >= 3 transfers and:

1) the first transfer succeeds but the last doesn't
2) the first transfer succeeds, the second one doesn't and the lock
is submitted again
3) the unlock never suceeds
