  Is it possible to intern a symbol and make it have a property whose value is a references to a another object like we do with setf()?

Transposing Regular Expression

opening a buffer as read-only as default 
  Which is the simplest way to have Emacs opening all files as read-only? That is not only by using C-x C-r but also when selecting a file in a directory buffer. And also preventing C-x C-f from opening a file as writable. I would like it to be possible to toggle the read-only state, though.
