these days, when mounting foreign partitions read-write is discouraged
if they contain anything of value?

Whenever you manually select a partition to be mounted, Tracker will ask you if you want to mount it read-only or read-write. What filesystem are you trying to mount? Note some are read-only by default (no write support was implemented).
