When read-only is nil, process-echoes functions normally, and I get only one input echoed; i.e. the duplicate input *is* deleted (but the prompt is erasable). So, by default, I have the same usability as before (modulo my hacked up idlw-roprompt advise functions), but am looking forward to using prompt-read-only.
