Ah ha! That probably explains how my database magically went RO. It happened right after trying to create a browsing index, which locked up the GUI. I had not associated the two events until know as I did not immediately realize the database was RO, at the time. We had maybe a dozen entries when trying to create the index so size does not appear to be an issue with the bug.

The GUI tells me it has done "Adding browsing > index entries to server" (ticked) but it is still "Creating browsing index > in server" (not ticked). It stays in this window forever.
