    _______________________________________________________

Details:

the editor needs a read-only mode. in this mode, cursor navigation would work
as normal, but any attempt to modify the content would pop up a confirmation
dialog requesting to switch the mode.
the mode would be initialized from the file's access rights. a manual toggle
(and possibly a command line switch to be able to use the editor as a viewer)
would be provided.
