Thanks for advice! It is different behavior in comparison to 6.0 and 5.3, as
well as to Microsoft Excel, where it is enough to select formula with Ctrl + /
and putting cursor into the input line. This change in behavior is not
mentioned also in list of "improvements".

And sorry for incomplete instructions in bug report! After clicking (single
click) into E2 and pressing "Ctrl" + "/" or alternatives on other keyboards to
select array formulas (https://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Array_Functions) you
need to put cursor into input line or press F2 to enter into edit mode, as it
is written in help documentation. 

It looks like the option for entering into edit mode by putting cursor into
input line is broken. If I'm putting cursor into input line after Ctrl + /, I
can't get to edit mode also by pressing F2. I should press Esc to leave input
line and then I can select array formula by F2.

It's not a big problem, because there is easy workaround with F2, but still
something is broken and program behaves slightly different than it is written
in help documentation. It's better to fix it before a version recommended for
enterprises is released and people are disappointed with something "not working
as they used to".

Best regards!
