Quick code editing function

In TFS2015, in-place editing of files from the web interface can be disabled?

This feature does not seem to take into account registration policies.

I worked on this by setting the IIS the URL Rewrite the Module and adding a rewrite rule, which returns from 403up POSTsto api method called Quick Edit:

<rewrite>
   <rules>
     <rule name="PreventQuickEditCheckin" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
     <match url="*" />
     <conditions>
         <add input="{URL}" pattern="/tfs/collection/_apis/tfvc/changesets" />
         <add input="{REQUEST_METHOD}" pattern="POST" />
         <add input="{HEADER_X-Requested-With}" pattern="XMLHttpRequest" />
     </conditions>
     <action type="CustomResponse" 
             statusCode="403" 
             statusReason="Forbidden: This action is not permitted." 
             statusDescription="Quick edit is currently disabled to prevent
                                checkin policies being circumvented." />
   </rule>
  </rules>
 </rewrite>

An additional restriction only for queries with a header X-Requested-With(added by jQuery) is that this method is blocked only by queries from TFS Web.
