But technically the mode is a tristate - you're either readonly, or
you're shareable, or you're read-write.  The fact that the XML allows
<shareable/> and <readonly/> at the same time is somewhat of a bug (but
we probably can't change it for fear of back-compat - I think it is
treated as though just <readonly/> were specified).
