Comment(by davidsarah):

 I've put the prefixes in READONLY_PREFIX and IMMUTABLE_PREFIX constants,
 so this would be trivial to change. I have no strong opinion on whether to
 use "{{{ro.}}}" and "{{{imm.}}}" vs "{{{readonly.}}}" and
 "{{{immutable.}}}".

 I understand the reasons for nervousness, but we're getting quite a lot of
 forward-compatibility goodness from this set of changes, and we should
 have sufficient time to review it before the release.
