   I looked at 
https://maven.apache.org/plugin-tools/apidocs/org/apache/maven/plugins/annotations/Parameter.html#readonly()
 and my interpretation of this annotation parameter is that it exist for a use 
case it don't fully understand (usage of common POM elements).
   
   My guess is that this readonly parameter is not related to Java attribute 
immutability. I'm also (mostly guessing) that the original author (@olamy ?) 
copy-pasted from the "wrong" thing. Perhaps from 
MavenProject/Settings/MavenSession? My assumption is that the intention is that 
the end-user should be able to configure this parameter in a `<configuration>` 
block. While reading the javadoc for readonly it looks like this should be 
false (or not defined, so it is false per default) for the indented use case of 
specifiying certchain.
