It is true that the preference disables editing a composite column via any method other than F2. I will change the documentation and tooltip to say that. However, the tweak can disable editing a column via a single click. Depending on what you want to do, setting one or both of them might be appropriate.
For example, I never want to start editing a field, any field, when I click in it. To accomplish this I set the tweak "double_click_on_library_view" to "edit_cell". This disables single clicks from editing a cell. If you also want to prevent editing a composite when tabbing in from editing the cell just before it then set the option as well.
If you *do* want to edit a cell with a single click then set the tweak appropriately. You can then use the option to prevent editing composites (and only composites) with a single click.

Thanks a lot for this added explanation. It's certainly food for thought. I'm used to being able to open books by double-clicking them, and do occasionally edit fields by single-clicking them. But there is both a hotkey and a main toolbar button for viewing a book, so I might have to experiment with changing the double-click action to
edit_cell. Thanks again!
