If a mount point within a cell is accessed in a rw volume, then the rw version 
will always be chosen, regardless of whether the containing volume is forced 
r/w, or just chosen because only a rw is available. So, the behaviour doesn't 
change at all in this case.

The admin guide has a pretty good description of the cache manager volume 
selection algorithm at http://docs.openafs.org/AdminGuide/ch05s07.html#HDRWQ209

Cheers,

Simon.
