Addons I wrote &/or maintain:
OzWeather (Australian BOM weather) | Check Previous Episode | Playback Resumer | Unpause Jumpback | XSqueezeDisplay | (Legacy - XSqueeze & XZen)
Sorry, no help w/out a

I'd have thought that was only necessary if you ever intend to export your media library, a process which then creates the artwork and NFO files within your share. If you don't intend to do this (it's not necessary for most people) then just export and mount the share read-only.
Texture Cache Maintenance Utility: Preload your texture cache for optimal UI performance. Remotely manage media libraries. Purge unused artwork to free up space. Find missing media. Configurable QA check to highlight metadata issues. Aid in diagnosis of library and cache related problems.

Write access is not mandatory, readonly is fine, but as mentioned by previous posters, some features won't work in that case.
