I do see some merit in this idea, but now that we've agreed on a
somewhat "minimalist" solution, I hesitate to change the old command as
well.  Some people surely won't like this, and we'll have another
discussion about a possible user option...

If we're resorting to global-set-key here, anyway, then I think a simple
solution for you would be to put vc-toggle-read-only on C-x C-q, and
plain toggle-read-only on C-c q or something that is equally easy to
type.

Thoughts?
