Hey, great why don't you email me? Do you have experience with kayaking? We are planning to go kayaking in the Guadalquivir in May if you are interested. Otherwise, I can share with you our itineraries (with locks) for the Danube (Passau-Bratisalva) and the Vistula (Cracow-Gdansk).

To your question. The routes we look are river only, meaning, we pick a river and we just keep going. Locks usually are not an issue, you either go pass them as you said (so pack well and get a cart 1) or you use a sluice.

The thing I would really be careful with is falls. Even 2m falls can be dangerous. We got very close (like 5m from it) to a 10m water fall in Vienna on the Neu Donau. It was not in our itinerary because under a bridge and not visible from google earth.
