At one time you had to wait for the metadata to finish downloading before you could use the GUI to edit metadata.

I believe they made it an independent process so that those who wanted to keep on editing with the GUI could.

There may not be a simple way to stop the confirmation dialogue(which you call popup) from appearing as it might require keeping track of every keystroke.

What I do is use the individual edit metadata window for editing and use the next key at the bottom to go from book to book. The dialogue doesn't interrupt till you exit.

If you use the edit metadata single layout, all of your standard and custom columns information is on one screen and it can be very easy to do multiple columns (sometimes faster than the GUI. Preferences>Behavior edit metadata.
