For your 4., yes, that is a bug. Custom elements need to be able to be specified once but making names editable in general is not a good idea as it would allow novice users to mess up things completely by changing names they should not be changing. That is why we locked down the names to begin with.

I will look into adding a small dialog prompt to query for a Custom metadata element (name) before adding it in table as once there, editing the name will not be possible but editing the value will of-course be.

Thanks,
