Read Only should be a status of what you're allowing others to do to your published information. However, If I can see something locally, I should be able to annotate (add information for my own personal use) to any item. Conceptually, I wouldn't mind if the annotations were a separate item that was linked to the original, as long as I am able to view both the original and my annotations simultaneously (different frames, or as overlays). Think of the UI for annotations (Postit Notes) in Excel for example. A Postit Note is a separate item that gains value by being attached to another item.
