the various applications could give it a try, to see whether it breaks

patch affect that?)

        I'll send you a sample document with the wunder-interoperable fields in
it.

Hm, with both my changed master as well as a stock 3.5, I could only get that document to expose editable fields when the document was in r/w mode and non-editable fields when the document was in r/o mode. So not sure that document (or the way I inspected it) helps verify I broke something.

I'll try to get the Calc (and other applications?) problems fixed as
soon as possible (I only noticed that problem now that I thought I was
mainly done, but had only ever tested my changes with Writer), but am

Turned out the Calc thing was independent of my changes; <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=477c2229d2532a11ec8c81b9ef392ce49357f95c> "Missing initialization" fixes that.

feature freeze.  Experience won over the last weeks indicates that too
many surprises lurk in this area.  So I would really like to hear other
people's thoughts.

        How many unit tests did we get out of that experience ;->  if there were
some, I'd be well up for putting it into 3.6. If we find it causes

Yeah, unit tests would have been nice. <fill in lame excuse of choice here...>

easily (right?).

Indeed. So I boldly pushed this now as <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=b9ecec7c74687ed5a9470cffb7d02e0e6e83107e> "Allow for editing of read-only documents" (with one small change compared to the earlier patch, so that r/o non-ODF documents correctly open as r/o, too).
