I have the same issue, I set the textarea as readonly="readonly" and 
disabled="yes";
and also by jquery set the attribute as $('#editor').wysiwyg().attr("disabled",
"disabled"); and still can edit it..

My work around for this was to create a readOnlyHandler function, which is 
essentially a key listener that calls event.preventDefault(); and returns 
false, and when I wanted to set it into read only mode I apply the function to 
the editorDoc body.

For posterity, I also iterate through all LIs in the toolbar and add the 
disabled class.
