So `read-only' is discarded while yanking. (See `yank-excluded-properties') .

But when you are yanking a (... 'read-only 'read-only) text in the
middle of an (... 'read-only 'editable) field, I see that the 'read-only
property is removed altogether on the newly yanked portion.  (I am
wondering) Shouldn't the yanked text should inherit the read-only
property of the surrounding text and thus get the ('read-only 'editable)
value.
