Generating a non-selectable option

Is it possible to generate disabled options for xforms:select/xforms:select1?

Examples:

Markup: <xforms:select1>...
Output: <select..><option disabled="disabled">Disabled Option</option>...

Markup: <xforms:select1 appearance="full" incremental="false">...
Output: <input type="radio" disabled="disabled">Disabled Option</input>

Markup: <xforms:select1 appearance="full">...
Output: <input type="checkbox" disabled="disabled">Disabled Option</input>

The use case that I have is that some answers within my form have been deprecated. They still want to show the user what the current answer is, but they do not want to allow that answer to be actively chosen.

Jeremy,

At this time it's not possible.

We use the readonly MIP to disable buttons (triggers). Maybe we could
use the same MIP to disable individual select/select1 items. But this
would be a new feature.
