Description
Description of the problem or steps to reproduce
Read-only mode (enabled via readonly option) doesn't fully disallow editing the buffer. It disables inserting and deleting text but doesn't disable at least the following operations:
- undo/redo
- replace
- retab
- comment/uncomment via comment plugin (since it uses Replace internally)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior with the readonly option and check each listed operation: undo/redo, replace, retab, and comment/uncomment through the comment plugin. Done means read-only mode disallows all of these editing operations while preserving its existing restrictions on inserting and deleting text.
