Position and size are not exclusively locked, at least in Writer, which
means the menu contains of [ ] Position, [ ] Size (both check boxes) meaning
None when both are unchecked.

Standard objects (shapes, textboxes, images not in Writer, OLEs not in Writer)
open the position and size dialog where in position and size can exclusively be
locked, in that when position is locked, size is also locked.

I can imagine that in business environments one wants some images to be
(pseudo) "locked" and not have the risk that normal users find easy way's to
change that.
I would really prefer this to remain a bit hidden.

If images or other objects are intended to be locked from editing by other
users of a document, there are means of lock content of a document, but hiding
functionality from normal users who would like to perform the same functional
with easy isnt the correct approach.

I kind of understand this and also would tend to say it's enough for this to
be in the dialog, no need in context menu (It's usually a thing you activate
once and do not change every day).

The context menu is to hold contextual functionality that is regularly used,
whether it be the setting or unsetting of the feature. In Impress, the position
and size dialog is the most opened dialog according to the OOo stat and the
checking and unchecking of the position and size checkboxes are highly used.
Also, the functionality is also being implemented into the sidebar (bug 90295).
