Comment (by viktor25):
I'm copying here my comment from the pull request:
It is important to be able to see the read-only page even if one has
change permission, because long-term the read-only page will be more
helpful than the form. For example, the form shows foreign keys as
dropdowns, while the read-only page could show them as links to the
foreign object. The read-only page is not constrained by the need to show
input widgets, so it is more powerful for visualizing information.
