When we rolled the most recent update to the new way to save info to your tree, we were trying to make it more obvious that you can click on the tree side to edit fields, but somehow we ended up with a bug where the cursor didn't get included. Look for an update the coming weeks that will allow you to click on any of the fields and the cursor should appear in that field.
We really are trying to make it the same to edit your tree info because we know that date formats, places, etc don't always come through the way you would want them to and it not our intent to make it harder.
