Found the culprit.
An NC app named "Temporary files lock" allows apps to lock files, and the locks are by default indefinite. Open the Text app through the desktop client, and the Text app sets the lock, the desktop client marks the file read-only, but when you close the window with the Text app, the lock is not released, leaving the file locked for good.
I've disabled the files_lock app, as my instance is practically single-user.
