I see nothing in the changes that should affect these keys, and they still do that for me.

It's not clear to me why F2 works as it does, its not a regular shortcut, nor as far as I can determine, a tweak of any kind. But I'd hate for it (and Tab/Backtab) to stop working as they do now. I've tweaked other programs to be consistent with calibre's use of F2.
Probably because F2 is the "platform edit key" in Windows for edit. Qt deals with that key directly. Same for the other keys.

It's probably too late and maybe not possible anyway, but in IMO the upgrade should set the 'enter_key_behaviour' to current value of 'doubleclick_on_library_view' - for me that's 'do_nothing'.

That battle has been lost. The default is "open_viewer". Personally I would prefer do_nothing so that calibre's behavior does not change. Second choice would be edit_metadata, followed by edit_cell. My last choice is open_viewer.

FWIW: making the default value of tweak A be the current value of tweak B probably would never happen. The structure for such a thing is not currently built into the tweak system.

FWIW**2: edit_metadata works both with single and multiple. If you select multiple lines then hit enter, edit bulk starts. If you select one line (the default), edit single starts.
