Problem
ConstanceForm reuses field constructor option dictionaries from the module-level FIELDS mapping. When a request user does not have constance.change_config, the form adds disabled=True directly to one of those shared dictionaries.
In a long-running process, that state survives after the read-only form has been built. Later forms of the same field type remain disabled even when their request user has change permission.
Fix
Copy the field options before applying request-specific read-only state. This keeps disabled scoped to the current form construction and leaves the shared FIELDS definitions unchanged.
A regression test builds a read-only form followed by an editable form and verifies that only the first form is disabled.
