Anyone else seeing this?
Curious - which Tweak is set to F2 only ?

I just tried F2 in another library on an empty custom column, and an empty pubdate - same deal they defaulted to today's date when I pressed F2.

If you find constantly opening the metadata editor annoying, the Action Chains plugin can bypass the glitch—make a chain that has a "single field edit" action to set #yourdatetimecolumn to the current time and bind that to whatever keyboard shortcut you want.
I do find it annoying, that's why I don't use single MDE - period.

But assuming the date column is shown in the book list, why wouldn't I just tab to the date cell and press F2 like I do for every other column?
