Subject: bug#33076: 26; `read-only-mode' messages
Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2018 10:04:00 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7d9a4a45-ac3d-4cff-a305-0e9e957b7609@default> (raw)

It would be much clearer if the messages referred to the buffer by name,
rather than just "current buffer".  You can use `C-x C-q' in the
selected window even when the buffer might not be clearly displayed
(e.g. tiny or partly obscured window/frame).  Having the message tell
you which buffer you changed read-only for provides better confirmation.
