This is something that should be handled by the application software.  

If this database is ever audited, it will fail the audit by doing this.  

The only read only accounts that are acceptable are generally for DBA's and app administrators, and for developers that need to see production data from outside the applicatoin.

struggling with how to handle packaged functions (which allow indirect access to view data). I can't grant execute on the whole package, as it also contains procedures that allow data changes.

looks like a great big maintenance swamp as this isn't a very stable app and the developers keep on changing the package interfaces.
