For my node that provides the read-only interface at volunteergrid.org, I simply added a reverse proxy (nginx, but others should work too) that only allows GET requests, as well as denies access to the index page (which would leak the introducer and helper furls).
It's not as "pretty" as telling Tahoe to be read-only, but since Tahoe is mostly REST-based it works just as well. I am not even sure if adding a "hide introducer furl"-mode is the right way to go - it would be better to add storage accounting or add controls to the introducer's web interface for banning clients.
