I've noticed that recently, completion has started inheriting the
read-only property.
Test: if you have a string in a read-only buffer
e.g. foobarbasbar
and you then type foo and complete it to foobarbasbar using
command `complete' then the completed string ends up read-only.
This is an irritant because if this happens to you in a mail
composition buffer (I use vm) then sending mail fails because
part of the buffer is read-only --- you end up having to eval
the appropriate lisp expression to remove the read-only property
with something like:
(let ((inhibit-read-only t))
(put-text-property start end
'read-only nil))
