I've thought some more about this, and the above is what is meant in an XForms 
content. It also mimics how :enabled/:disabled works for HTML content, 
because that is also tied closely together with an attribute on the element. 
So maybe having an :editable selector wouldn't be such a bad idea.

If you are designing a form, based on an editor template where you can only 
edit some parts of the form, the form would have parts that are :editable by 
you and some that are not. Input fields can be styled depending on whether 
they will be :read-only or :read-write to the user, no matter the :editable 
state of the part they live in.
