Hi Carsten,
You're right that it dates from then. Here's the fix I suggest. I've
tested that this results in writable fixed-width edit buffers, writable
src edit buffers, and non-writable babel preview buffers.

* lisp/org-src.el: Prevent fixed-width region edit buffers
being created as read-only.
Modified lisp/org-src.el
org-edit-src-code gains extra optional arguments `code' and
`edit-buffer-name'. If `code' is supplied, then this code forms the
contents of the edit buffer, which is made read-only. In this case,
the mechanisms for writing back to the org buffer on save are
disabled.
Optional argument `edit-buffer-name' allows a name for the edit buffer
to be supplied.
This support was totally broken. It works now again. Unfortunately
it is not possible to edit the table directly in the org-mode buffer
anymore - to edit such a table, you have to use C-c '
Saving the edit buffer is achieved by calling org-edit-src-exit,
saving the org buffer and returning to the edit buffer with
org-edit-src-code. When those two functions are used in this context,
they should not attempt to restore the saved window configuration, nor
alter the saved window configuration.
These changes provides frame / window management preferences for the
edit buffer generated using C-c ' on a source code block. Preferences
are specified by a new variable org-src-window-setup, which is based
on org-agenda-window-setup and has the same four options:
current-window, other-window, reorganize-frame, other-frame. These
behave as follows:
* current-window
The edit buffer appears in the current window.
* other-window
`switch-to-buffer-other-window' is used to switch to the edit buffer
in the same frame.
* reorganize-frame [default]
The current frame is reorganized so that it is split between the
source code edit buffer and the parent org buffer.
* other-frame
The edit buffer appears in a new frame. That frame is deleted when
exiting the edit buffer with C-c '.
