It's not that I cannot follow the use case, it's annoying for me as well
sometimes. But point is, Calc is a spreasheet tool and we should make it
comfortable for working with numbers not text.

And I disagree with too many options, in particular exposed at the main menu or
toolbars. Keep it simple!

Could imagine this solution. Eike, what do you think?
