yeah, `drive_should_be_read_only` would be more apt, but also sounds
wrong. I did have the non-template case in mind as well (e.g., adding a
'ro' flag to the drive in our VM config as a future addon, like we have
for container mountpoints).

would work as well. or we drop all of it and no longer mark any drives
as read-only, if we use the patch that adds '-snapshot' for
'start-template-for-backup'? at the risk of re-doing it if we ever add a
'ro' property for individual regular disks/drives..
