It's an interface guarantee, and as such I think it's OK that it can't be
overridden in a derived class. Agree?
Er, when I first read that I thought you meant that with respect to
the inheritance issue, but reading again I'm not sure. But, anyways,
looking over pmc2c I found that doing it 'properly' was not too
difficult, so I've done that (read/writeness is inherited by default
and can be overridden). I provide the feature in the hope that people
will think really hard before using it to violate interface
guarantees.
