Combobox (<b:selectOneMenu>) with readonly="true"

[matasci]

The selectOneMenu with readonly="true" it does not block changes.

<b:row>
	<b:selectOneMenu label="Test-selectOneMenu" readonly="true">
		<f:selectItem itemLabel="Test1" itemValue="1" />
		<f:selectItem itemLabel="Test2" itemValue="2" />
		<f:selectItem itemLabel="Test3" itemValue="2" />
	</b:selectOneMenu>
</b:row>

Interesting find. The good news is that the input is rejected by the backend, so little harm is done (apart from displaying a confusing UI, which is bad enough).

Also, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32846865/twitter-bootstrap-select-readonly-still-able-to-change-options. Apparently, there's no readonly attribute in standard HTML.

Now <b:selectOneMenu readonly="true" /> renders more or less the same code as <b:selectOneMenu disabled="true" />.
