One thing that could improve some workflows (Like mine 😛) is that when you have an object isolated a lot of times you might tap on an “empty” area and accidentally select a different mesh.  
Maybe if you have a mesh isolated the lock selection could be enabled automatically and go back to whatever was set before after exiting isolation.  
Thanks!
