I never knew this, but it works indeed! You must also set
AllowIncSearch to true.

The help suggests that the grid doesn't even have to be ReadOnly. You
can assign a key (IncSearchHotKey) to toggle between edit and search
mode. (Of course it's possible that this key toggles ReadOnly as part
of its workings.)
