>From my configuration:
1) status
2) ifconfig-pool-persist
3) tmp-dir (for storing openvpn_pf_*.tmp files)
4) client-connect script may want to write something
5) a plugin may want to write something

For me even the read-only option will break nearly *everything*. And for user 
it will be completely not obvious why his scripts doesn't work, why his status 
file is not updated, and what's wrong with ifconfig-pool-persist.
