Hi.

Is there any way to lock a shape? I have quite complex layer with lots of shapes and when ever I try to select the layer and move it, it selects shape points and tries to move those. It's quite anoying. Only way to move it is with arrow keys on keyboard. So, is there a trick for this?

That looks quite nice, well done! After Effects should have some sort of master expression thing, where you can tweak only one expression and use it in many layers so you don't have to copy the modified expression again and again. But your scripts make the copying much easier.
