Description
In a foreign key field, one can change the foreign key id or change the object that is mapped (via the popup).
The Readonly attribute disable editing entirely so you can neither change the mapping ID nor the foreign key object.
Autocomplete should have a way to allow editing of the foreign key object while not allowing the mapping to be changed

If someone offered a patch, we could take a look, but I think this would add too much complexity. The admin can't reasonably solve every use case under the sun.
