Mounting /ipns/ has negative consequences (one can't use ipfs name publish) so option to mount only /ipfs/ or /ipns in read only mode would be beneficial.

Research direction
Investigate the IPFS mount implementation in the Kubo codebase, likely in the 'core/commands/mount.go' or similar files. Understand how the current mount options work and consider adding a configuration flag or option to mount only /ipfs/ or /ipns/ in read only mode. Check existing comments for further context.
