Public bug reported:

We'd like a simple way to setup a user that can ONLY read details within
OpenERP.

Currently the way that I do this is make a duplicate of a group (and
their inherited groups) and then set the permissions to only have Read
Access.  Each time we add a new feature I have to go hunting through the
changes to the access rights and add those to that Read Only group.
This is not the most effective way that things could be done.

If a user is set to have read only access to an existing group, the new
menus and access rules are automatically available to that user (albeit
in that read only state).

By being able to define a user/group/company combination as read only it
should be relatively simple to have some code to decide if a 'Edit' or
'Create' (or 'Duplicate', 'Delete' etc) button is visible to the user.
