I haven't been able to work out how this setting varies. With either choice it seems the field is editable in the back-end and not editable in the front-end, regardless of whether I access as a user or super-user. Any advice how this works, it is not explained in the documentation.

Hi,
One thing though, when I had the custom fields marked as readonly, I couldn't import to them. It was only after I made this change that I was able to import to the custom fields, so it seems the readonly has more impact than just the addition of html on the page, unless the form is being used to import the custom fields?
Yes, it is so, we will change this behavior in next release.

Hi,
"yes" make readonly also in registration page. I don't know the purpose but many customers ask for this feature :D

This parameter does not need documentation, it set "readonly" state for fields.

Hi,
maybe in future we can improve this parameter, but keep in mind that "readonly" is a simple HTML attribute, http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_readonly.asp
