Hmm, wrong assumption I fear.
It writes to many files at startup and shutdown (and runtime) and I don't think
it would really be usable w/o write access to them.

Also no. The basic profile directory is hardcoded to ~/.mozilla/firefox
There are multiple profiles possible under this structure though which can be
chosen through command line. But then it's a completely different profile (as
for another user).
