Permit changing the type of a goal
The "Do more" goal automatically sums, and is the default goal type. This is right for most of my goals, but for one of them, I selected that and started entering data.
I'd like to change it to not sum, but I don't see where I can do that. Is there a way? And if not, can there be a way?

Ha, yes, you can do it via the API. :) I'm impressed that you dug so deep!
Also feel free to email support@beeminder.com when this sort of thing happens.
And I should mention that with custom goals the kyoom setting is available in the web interface, but custom goals are highly confusing so we decided to make them only available with a premium plan: http://beeminder.com/premium

Interestingly, I was able to do this with the API:
>> {'auth_token': '(my auth token here)', 'slug': 'announcees', 'kyoom': 'false'}
>>> requests.put('https://www.beeminder.com/api/v1/users/paulproteus/goals/announcees.json', d)

In particular, looking at https://www.beeminder.com/api , it seems the boolean value "kyoom" is something I want to set to False.
