Good idea.  I have now added a warning, as well as a doc string for
`vm-toggle-read-only' that explains the issue.

  "If the current VM folder is read-only, make it modifiable.

This command can also be used to make a modifiable folder read-only.
However it is unsafe to do so because any previous modifications will
be discarded when the folder is quit.  You should first save the
current changes of the folder before making it read-only."

Cheers,
