F2 (to switch off reference-input-mode) confirms entered values

This issue is thought to replace issue 27761. The problem(s) mentioned there are only partially fixed in 680m34. Here I describe what problem still exists. (So this issue is NOT a duplicate of issue 27761): - Open a new (empty) spreadsheet - Set B1 "=A1" - insert a number in A1 (do not confirm) - press EXC: As you can see, the changes are not applied. This is OK. - again insert any number into A1 - Press F2 (do not confirm): The value in A1 is confirmed. You can see this because B1 gets this value. - press ESC: The value now IS (kept) applied. This is caused because of the bug that F2 (to switch off reference-input-mode) confirms values. Excel does not confirm values when pressing F2, and so Excel correctly does not apply values in this case when cancelling the cell-edit with ESC. I think you should do the same (not confirm entered values by pressing F2).
