Correct. However if you wish to implement the client upload feature, 
there is an uploads directory under wp-content which will need write 
ability. The WordPress created subdirectories within this directory will 
also be set to these permissions. But that is only place where write 
should be considered. This is where items like uploaded photos exist.
