Glad to help where I can.
Regarding the section locks, I actually started typing something along that subject when I saw your requirement to lock cutoff to mw, because my observation is that there's usually another way to accomplish that particular one. For example, on the Ultranova you can press a button on the synth that basically locks the "big knob" (the convenient one) to filter for all patches regardless of other patch settings. And of course in DAW with either a softsynth or something like the VST for Virus or Nova synths, all of that becomes ridiculously easy by just DAW mapping the wheel to the cutoff, or maybe using automap to do same.
But the other part of your requirement, which is probably less frequently asked for than the above (i.e. globally changing category for patches in bulk) is not something I had an answer for except for trying to find an editor to support it. Soft synths tend to make even that aspect ridiculously easy, for example categorizing patches by folder name (just go into Windows and create folders all day long for Zebra patches for example, and just paste them in), but I think you were looking for a Virus OS based solution rather than a Windows or Mac one -- I remember hearing others here ask in the past about bulk editing and not sure I've seen a good option posted yet (my own included). So good luck and let us know how it goes.
BTW, there may be a "mcguyver solution" that could be done with a little creativity and sysex ex/importing. I don't have a Virus ATM, nor much free time for experimentation, but it seems doable. If I thought there was a valid market for it I might embark on writing one myself -- but piracy these days has sucked the profitability out of small utility software like this so I focus on contracts with the big wigs
..... honestly these days some folks will balk at the prospect of paying $20 for a piece of software that will save them hundreds of hours, so for it to be worth my time there has to be a market there. I'd like to see Access show confidence in their own product by getting TI working properly and updating with a reasonable feature set before I start writing software for it and expecting to get paid if you get my drift
