Description

Currently the ZooInspector tool allows read/write access to any cluster it connects to.  For safety purposes, I think it would be useful to add a "Read Only" mode to ZooInspector where it can be used to inspect, but not modify, a cluster.  I believe this should be added to the Connection Settings dialog (see attached image) and possibly also be made the default.

I believe this would make ZooInspector a safer tool to use in production settings.
