Sorry I don't understand this. In the versions of LO Writer available to me, I
cannot "adjust the column width to the content similarly to double-click

Again, the selection is only needed if the user does actually want to optimize
only a subset of the columns. In my production of hundreds of tables in the
last decades, this has never happened to me. Anyway, if application of the
function to the entire table is the default case, then it should not require
selecting anything.
