One more tiny but not insignificant detail...
I found I had to add "requires=[]" to the custom.widget:
[form.custom.widget[f.name].update(_readonly=True, requires=[]) for f in
readonly_fields]
Otherwise, the field keeps the 'requires' of the original Field and the
check fails. The above solution is working very well!
