This seems to be fixed in ToT.
Comment 2 Adele Peterson 2006-07-06 19:26:27 PDT 
I still see this problem on TOT.  If you click in a readonly field, I see a focus ring.

Add rule to html4.css and add readonly as a special case attr for style sharing.

There is talk of a read-only pseudoclass, but hot debate about what it should apply to.  That's why I decided not to add a new pseudoclass for this yet.

Fixed in r18798.

This bug was referenced in a Chromium bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=870062
It's not clear why readonly text fields had their focus ring removed given they can still be tab focused. Do you know the backstory to this change?
