Is there no expectation that a "read-only" mode would block any changes
to a buffer? Killing the inferior process breaks that expectation, hence
this report.

That said, I've been a daily user of shell-mode for something like 25
years, and encountered it for the first time just recently, so fixing
this surely isn't very high priority. But still.

Thanks!
