Quickview in the column context menu is a good idea. I submitted the changes to Kovid and they are now in trunk. The menu item is shown if the column is "quickview"able. It is disabled if more than one book is selected to avoid any selection ambiguity.

FWIW: clicking in a non-quickviewable field will change the book but not change the selected column. As title isn't quickviewable, that is a good column to use to change the contents of the quickview window without changing the column being examined.

I have difficulty seeing which cell in the 'spreadsheet' is current (something to think about) and I don't like clicking on a cell and being thrown into edit mode when that's not what I want - I could tweak that feature off and limit myself to F2 - if I could find the tweak.
I think you are looking for the tweak "Control behavior of the book list (ID: doubleclick_on_library_view)". If you set the tweak to "edit_metadata" then single clicks on cells change the selection but do nothing else.
