That doesn't just high-light the book name, but also make it so that I can simply rename the book without having to click the name in order to bring up the cursor and rename it.

But now, hitting the F1 key just opens the Manual..P
F2 default key for editing cells in the book list - similar to renaming files in file managers etc.

F1 is the 'industry' standard default key for getting Help (which for calibre is the on-line user manual)

You can change the F1 for Help in Preferences-Keyboard, but I don't think you can change the functionality of F2

After you press F2 and enter new value in title, hit enter, down arrow and you're on the next book title, press F2 and enter... repeat ad-infinitum
