I prefer using right-click menu and hot keys, much rather than the toolbar or
the upper menu. For me, it means that I use Right click -> Size -> Optimal
Column Width to resize the columns. 

The other part is missing, indeed. I would like to have a Select menu item in
the right click menu with the following items:
- Cell
- Row
- Column
- Table

In the LO I can access now (5.3.0.3 on a Mac) there are no hot keys but if they
were then the whole operation would be just 
- Right Click -> E -> T (for selecting the table) (S is used by Select
therefore E could be used)
- Right Click -> S -> O (for optimizing the column width)

Besides this, it would be even better if the multiple clicks would work more
extensively, in the following manner. 

within a cell:
- click: poition the cursor (it works)
- double click: select the word (it works)
- triple clikck: select the cell (this is missing now)

on the left margin:
- click: select the row (it works)
- double click: select whole table (this is missing now)

I admit, this is not a complete solution for your problem but it seems to be
much easier to implement. By contrast, your proposal requires to change the ODF
format as well, I think, because you want to save the "always apply optimal
column width" table setting as well.

Do you think such a semi-solution would be enough?
