Open in Read-Only mode pop-up option.

Good morning,

I propose that MS developers add a new option to the contextual menu for document handling, which would be especially useful for online work. It is sometimes necessary to open a document in read-only mode, but there is currently no option to do so.

It would be great here for example...

    Disable Protected View in Office applications (File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Protected View, then uncheck the relevant options), or drag and drop the file into the window to force edit mode.
