Maybe we should have the Edit menu selectively grey out what does not
work on read-only buffers?  This is partly done, but somewhat
inconsistently.  For example, "Yank" is allowed.  The definition of
x-clipboard-yank does not have an (interactive "*") spec.  I don't
know whether that is the reason, or whether the interactive-spec does
not get consulted automatically.
