The simplest way is to define two attributes in your view class:

  title_widget = CustomWidgetFactory(DisplayWidget)
  description_widget = CustomWidgetFactory(DisplayWidget)

You could adapt the context to a schema that had readonly title and
description fields, but this is a lot more work than explicitly
specifying the widget classes to use, per the example above.
