web plugin `readonly` and `include_paths` not working?

[iveney]

Seems reproducible by other folks. Think this might worth raising as issue.

Discussed in https://github.com/beetbox/beets/discussions/5290

^{Originally posted by **iveney** June 7, 2024} I enabled web in the plugin list, and can successfully run it with `beet web` ``` web: host: 0.0.0.0 readonly: no include_paths: yes ``` However, I cannot edit the tag or show the path. I can play and download without any problem. How do I enable editing and show the paths?  ``` ❯ beet --version beets version 2.0.0 Python version 3.12.3 plugins: duplicates, edit, fetchart, fromfilename, info, inline, lastgenre, mbsubmit, mbsync, plexupdate, spotify, unimported, web ```

Problem

Running this command in verbose (-vv) mode:

$ beet -vv web

Led to this problem:

Can open the web ui, but cannot see / modify tags and the path

Setup

• OS: Debian Linux 6.1.0-21-amd64 x86_64
• Python version: 3.12.3
• beets version: 2.0.0
• Turning off plugins made problem go away (yes/no): N/A
