ReadOnly mode acts as Disabled

[Dennis Jakobsen]

We use CkEditor for internal messaging. With links allowing pointing around our internal system.

But ckeditor in ReadOnly mode prevent links from being clicked.

My understanding of ReadOnly is that content cannot be edited. It shouldn't prevent interaction, selection or navigation of content.

[Piotrek Koszuliński]

The only difference between read-only mode and read-write mode is that in read-only mode content cannot be changed. Links should not be clickable still, because this is still a content, not a preview of a web page. If you want to make links clickable, destroy CKEditor and load its content into a container in your internal system.
