Controls in various environments, including HTML, typically have a
"disabled" mode, where they appear but otherwise don't work. This is
true for input fields, dropdowns, etc. Buttons too have such a mode.

When an input control is readonly it makes sense to show it as
disabled (although there could be a subtle difference between the
two). So by extension using `readonly` as the way to make the button
look disabled seems a natural way given the MIPs available right now
in XForms.

Ok.
