I already tried to use the threshold-property, but the map did not
reflect a changed threshold.
Finally I came across you AppendableCluster() and it behaves exactly as
expected. Thank you for that.

But now, disabling the clustering strategy seems clumsy to me, so I try
to improve.
I have a couple of point-features on a vector layer. Whenever I select a
single feature, its properties are loaded into a html-form for the user
to edit.
When a cluster is selected, a list of its features is shown to pick from.
All this already works fine.

But the user should be able to move the currently edited feature on the
map. So what I need is a way to seperate a single feature from its
cluster until i remerge them.
Ideally it would work as
  myFeature.canCluster = false;
or something like this. But this does not seem to exist.
Can you please point me in the right direction?

Hmm, I tried.
Where would I find a non-compressed, better documented openlayers.js?

cheers,
