Allow defining read-only fields inside bean-edit-form component
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TAP5-679
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-679
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.1
            Reporter: manuel aldana


inside bean-edit form it would be cool to have a component parameter where you define read-only fields. They should be closed for edition, still they should be visible (thus @NonVisual is not an option).

I know it is hard to put all form requirements into one component (harder to understand, harder to document). But having read-only fields inside a form is a very common use case and in my view should be supported in the handy first class form component of tapestry.

The syntax could look like:
<beaneditform .... readonly="literal:foo,bar"/>
or even better, to let it control through page class:
<beaneditform .... readonly="prop:readOnlyParameters"/>
