Review: Disapprove

Hi,

Unfortunately the `read` and `write` attributes on OpenERP fields are an 
artifact of past experimentation, and never fully functional. They are hidden 
and undocumented, and none of the official OpenERP modules use them, for this 
very reason. In fact we should have removed them a while ago, but this was 
apparently overlooked.

In any case, it is not a good idea to use or depend on them, because they are 
not part of the system design. This patch may slightly change and possibly 
improve the way they are used, but they are many more areas where users might 
experience strange behaviors.

We also cannot allow patching this experimental/deprecated part of the system 
in a stable release because it is located in a core area, and any patch there 
will possibly introduce dangerous regressions. As all customers in production 
are not supposed to be using this, there is no sense in compromising the 
stability of the system for every customer just because someone had the idea of 
digging into the code and playing with that experimental part, sorry.

For all of the above reason, we have to reject this merge proposal, even though 
the patch might be interesting for anyone who would like to develop some custom 
behavior based on these experimental idea.

I hope you understand this decision...

Thanks!
