Mounting /etc read-only makes no sense at all, config files are designed to

Now, if initrd could handle /etc being on a separate filesystem, that
would be cool. I might would leave /usr on / (mounted ro) if that were
the case (although that wouldn't help with the case I recently had where
/usr was corrupted but I still booted "emergency" mode to restore from
tape).
It doesn't make sense to have /etc/ a seperate parition from /.
It does. Files below /etc carry machine-dependent configuration info.
=> Sharing /etc between several machines will only work if all machines
are very similar (almost identical).
