Status in OpenObject GTK Client: Confirmed

Bug description:
readonly=True (in py and xml) does allow programs to write but not to save the field.
onchange triggers can write into "readonly=true" fields, but this information is quietly lost during save 

Example (abstract)
onchange(qty,price)
returns value=qty*price
value is a database field.

it seems to me that readonly=true should only prevent user input.
and that onchange is considered as "user input"

how should a readonly field be filled if neither user nor program can set a value?
may be I am missing something.

may be an attribute "enterable" =false (default true) could prohibit user input and allow program input

just says "read only"

thanks
