This is probably because it gets the data from the object serialization.

This is a non issue as the read only data will get discarded during the validation.

Well, it is issue for my project because I don't want misinform clients about required fields in the request..

To work around this I redefined method get_serializer_class to return another serializer when PUT request processing. But I don't think that it is a best way to do that..
