It would be nice to make them read-only by the HTML atribute readonly.

Would you welcome a PR?

I've thought about this a bit. I think there is a lot we can do here.

Editable fields should have capability checks on them
Some fields should probably be drop-down lists of registered objects where appropriate
Some fields should be read-only, where edits don't make sense (user agent, IP address, etc...)

Thanks.

where edits don't make sense

Could you give me an example where edits make sense in a log?

Always!

When you're the admin of a WordPress site and WordPress Admin is the only way you have to edit everything that's saved in your database.

Still a valid idea, but will not be part of 2.3.0.
