Yes for deleting a single row or column without first selecting them through
the row and column headers would require two mouse clicks, but if a user wants
to delete more than a single row or column, then would selecting them first and
it is a shorter mouse distance to open the context menu than the click a button
on the toolbar.

You can customize your toolbar to have add those four buttons back.

Yes it would have been better to have left those there as hidden buttons that
the user could easily unhide, especially those who got used to them being there
since 4.4, so i'll re-add them.

@Gulsah: You interested in doing split button versions of the row and column
buttons?
