Edit this Row Workflow is non-intuitive

[ngkabra]

When I click on a row, I am shown a popup with "values", and "Click Here to Change this row" followed by the names and values of all the columns.

Now if I click on the spinner and choose "Update this row", everything works fine. However, if I directly click on a column value (without clicking on "Update this row"), it allows me to edit the value, but when I click OK, nothing happens. This is very confusing.

Suggestion: If I directly click on a column value (without clicking on "Update this row"), it should work exactly as if I have already clicked "Update this row".

Alternative suggestion: Don't allow editing of values unless "Update this row" has been clicked.
