User Acquired Element Upon Opening Model
Do people use Editing Requests? That can be responsible for people owning elements that they think they have not interacted with.
For example, I want to work on a Wall but Susan has already borrowed (edited) it. I get a message that I can't edit it until she relinquishes so I click the Place Request button. Now Revit thinks I want the element. Before Susan gets around to looking at it or synchronizing I decide to close the model to do something else. My request is still in the queue and when Susan does Sync and relinquish elements I become the owner/borrower of the element, even though I'm not in the model anymore.
If people like using Edit Request I encourage them to Withdraw any existing requests before they close their model to avoid this situation. I also encourage them to not to place editing requests. Just ask the person to use SwC, since that's what is required 99% of the time anyway.

Is is a specific element each time? Specific category? Scope or part of the model each time? A view? What sort of warnings are stored in the model?
