I can confirm that selecting cells feels more reliable in LO 7.2. However on LO
7.1 I had this issue all the time. Let's hope this got fixed somehow in 7.2,
even though I could not find any commit directly related to this issue.

In spite of cell selection now working again, I have to agree with Andy that
working with tables in Impress is a total pain. The default formatting is not
nice (white and grey); resizing the table is not a good experience; the
auto-formats are outdated and cannot be changed; having to double-click the
table to select a cell is not a good UX; just to list a few issues.
Table editing in Impress/Draw is in need of some love by developers to make its
UX more compatible with what most users (specially new ones) would expect
coming from other office suites.</pre>
