Yeah.  A value of nil means the same as the absence of the property.

We would make `read-only inhibit' mean "inhibit buffer-wide
read-onlyness", but then that means that if somebody today is using
`read-only inhibit' (for some reason or other) to make text read-only,
then that would break.  I don't think that's very likely, though...
