Probably not :-). I've committed a change which modifies the behaviour
such that simply clicking on the cell no longer cycles the value - it
now just displays the checkbox which must be explicitly clicked to
change the value. <ESC> now seems to do what is required, and I believe
this also has the side effect of curing the other inconsistency you
reported previously.
