Do you have an example?
The "R" key (I mean not "Shift-R") should not move waters if the centred 
residue is not a water.

I wonder what "egregious" means here.  Does Validate → Atom Overlaps (Coot) 
give you anything other than green (or
nothing)?

Changing epsilon will change the refinement, but may well not make it behave as 
you want it to behave if indeed the
interaction is egregious.

indeed...

That doesn't sound familiar. It sounds like it's getting kicked by some 
non-bonding interaction.

I imagine that you can create a custom toggle button in a few lines of python 
to do this switching.
