Hello,

how come there are no options when creating fields to choose like in the "User ReadOnly" module?
One would expect this functionality to be integrated.

Are there any plans to cover this functionality in some other way?
I mean to be able to choose it a field is editable/viewable (read only) and choose access rights.
Both for profiles and other types.

This will not be provided by Drupal 7 core.
Instead you will have to use a contrib module, such as http://drupal.org/project/field_permissions (not ported yet).
It might or might not be included in Drupal 8, but if so there will be a new issue for that.
