Content & configuration
A Component refers to a Parameter with the following properties. Please note readOnly is set to true
"offset" : {
"name" : "offset",
"in" : "path",
"description" : "Index of first item to return.",
"required" : false,
"readOnly" : true,
"schema" : {
"type" : "integer",
"format" : "int32"
}
}
However when the same is checked in the Swagger UI, the offset field is still editable. It should be disabled based on the property readOnly
Expected behavior

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Reproduce the supplied OpenAPI 3.0 parameter in Swagger UI, then trace the parameter form rendering and existing tests; done means a parameter with readOnly set to true is no longer editable and the behavior is covered by a regression test.
