Currently you have to double click on a cell to edit it.
It would be amazing to just press F2 to edit the selected cell. :-)
This feature is well known from all kinds of spreadsheet apps like Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets.

@Esanders oh yeah, that's cool. Didn't know that. :-)

Citation needed :) (I use spreadsheets and I'd never heard of this shortcut until now) We'd also need to check that this doesn't conflict with any other shortcuts on the widely supported browser/platform variants.
Hey, thanks! :-)
Can only speak for Firefox and say F2 doesn't conflict with any of its functions.
