Default Some fields cannot be edited on "All Fields" tab on Contact forms

This is expected behavior. The email addresses stored in contacts are not simple text fields; each is a combination of three different text fields. You'll need to edit them on the General tab, not on All Fields.

Should every field on the All Fields tab be editable? Some of the
fields, for example "E-mail 2" will not permit inline field editing on
that tab. Is this expected or configurable somewhere? Couldn't dig up
any information on this in Microsoft's help, site, or newsgroups. I
have users who prefer to use that tab to edit contact information and I
can't see any reason why these should be greyed out.
