There is no setting, but I'm assuming these are selection sets
you want to save so they are not changed.

Drop to a shell prompt and change the mode of the files to read
only and/or change the ownership to 'root', then the 'filepro' user
will not be able to modify them.

It means you have to do a bit more work, but I've done this for
those type of selection sets that will not be changed for a long
time.

It would be nice to have an immutable flag choice.
