I wonder as well.  I know I'm to blame for some of the calls to
toggle-read-only, because I thought it might be better to use the
higher-level function.  But indeed it seems that was a mistake.

So let's add it to byte-compile-interactive-only-functions (with
a comment about why); and if it turns out that there are many cases
where calling it from Elisp makes sense, then we'll get to learn which
are the cases where it makes sense.
