Restrict changes to top level folders while allowing changes to lower level folders

We have numerous incidents where a team member accidentally changes a high-level folder (rename, move, delete, etc) causing a cascade of sync problems and stalling the projects for hours.
If certain folders could be restricted to read-only while still allow the child-folders to be editable by members, that would be extremely helpful.
