First of all, it would be really nice if you mentioned the version of PostgreSQL and O/S when posing questions.
That being said, that wiki is a _discussion_, and as such, a suggestion on how it "might" be implemented. However, at this time, there is no such option as SET READ ONLY in any version of PostgreSQL. The best you can do is revoke INSERT, UPDATE & DELETE from public and all specific granted users.
