Nice improvement! I tested it and it works as expected.
Just have a couple of questions, which I've left in the comments.

The effect sets isShowingFilter to true, but it never resets it to false. Could this lead to any potential edge cases? Also, I wonder if it's possible to derive the value directly using useMemo instead, so we don't need to have useEffect and useState?

The state is previous to this PR, and this change fixes a bug: the current code doesn't consider that fields can be updated (e.g., they are empty when dataviews is mounted and updated later). The bug can be reproduced by having a primary filter in this screen (expected: is visible, actual: is not).
I've refactored a bit at b69b582

When hovering over the locked status chip, the cursor still appears as a pointer. I would expect a different cursor and for the hover effect to be disabled altogether. Does that make sense?

I updated this at 166ba06 and also prevented locked filters from participating in the tab sequence (makes sense for primary but not for filters you cannot actually interact with).

| ( f ) => f.field === field.id && !! f.isLocked | ||
| ) ?? false, | ||

Should we consider sorting locked filters prominently like primary filters below for a better user experience?

Great thinking, thanks. I've made locked filters first, then primary, then the rest at 71931f0 I haven't pushed any other UI changes.

What?
Introduces "locked filters" and uses them in the Site Editor's Pages screen.
Screen.Recording.2025-08-05.at.17.30.47.mov
Why?
This replaces some custom code we had in the Pages screen that was sub-optimal (filter value wasn't visible).
Testing Instructions
Visit the Site Editor's Pages screen and navigate through the bundled views (sidebar). Verify "All pages" contains a "status" filter that can be interacted with, and the other pages have a "locked filter" (displays the value but can't be interacted with).
