I recently created an admin form where I wanted to set ALL of the fields
in said admin form (a ModelAdmin) to read-only. Basically, I just wanted a
simple "viewer" for each of these records (credit card transaction results
from Authorize.Net so I don't exactly want people changing auth codes,
transaction ID's, etc.). When I go to a record I see the following UI
elements that are somewhat out of place:
* Save and add another
* Save and continue editing
* Save
* The header "Change transaction" (should probably say "View transaction"
or simply the result of __unicode__ for the object)
Delete is also somewhat out of place here. Might make sense to default
has_delete_permission() to return False when all fields are marked as
read-only.
