This TSconfig simply doesn't exist.
Check the TSconfig documentation for allowed settings:

http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsconfig/4.1.0/view/1/3/#id3541144
TCEFORM.[tablename].[field].config.[key]

> The configuration file change:

So this is the time when you want to setup a little extension or put the
changes into extTables.php in your localconf directory ... ;-)
