Yes, it's one item.  Chandler will show the user the item with their
local changes, and (obviously) not write those back to the read-only
share on the server.  If afterwards someone else changes the item in
the read-only share, Chandler will show a pending change on the item
that the user can choose to apply/discard.  The sharing framework
allows Chandler to maintain the differences between a local copy of an
item and any number of shares.
