LockDrop
by peinzlou
LockDrop lets a player mark a held item so that pressing the drop key cannot throw it away by accident.
What it does
A locked item stays in the inventory when the drop key is pressed, which guards items that would be lost to a stray keypress, such as a tool, a stack near lava or a cactus, or a valuable on a shared farm server. Locking is done with a key press while hovering over an item, or by holding the item in hand and running the lockdrop command.
Key features
Lock items in the inventory
Hovering over an item and pressing L prevents it from being dropped until the lock is removed.
Lock the held item
The item in hand can be locked with the lockdrop command, which suits players who prefer typed commands.
Guards against accidental drops
A locked item cannot be thrown into lava, a void or a cactus by an accidental press of Q.

What the author says
This mod allows you to lock an item to prevent it from being dropped from your inventory. Sometimes you accidentally press “Q” and throw an important item into the void, lava, a cactus, or someone’s farm on the server. Just press the “L” key while hovering over an item in your inventory, and you won’t be able to drop…
