--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
The destructive action of having selected a row and then deleting all columns
from  the Sheet -> "Delete Column" entry, or alternatively of having selected a
column and then deleting all rows from the Sheet -> "Delete Row" entry makes
for a bad UX if done unintentionally.

Seems some warning is needed--"your action would delete all content from this
sheet, are you sure?"

Don't need to change the behavior, but should be easy to detect the case. I.e
that all columns are selected when a row is the selection, or all rows are
selected when a column is selected, and warn against unintentional deletion.
