Screenshot from Word

Word has a neat feature that tables have a handle in the bottom right corner,
and tables can be resized by grabbing that handle with the mouse (both
vertically and horizontally). Columns are resized proportionally. It would be
great to have something similar in Writer, because the Columns tab in Table
Properties isn't user-friendly, albeit useful if the size to be set precisely.

Dear UX team, what's your take on this feature, are there additional
considerations to take into account.

A minor question, should the handle positioning depend on left/right alignment
of table on page? In Word it doesn't, but behaves according to the setting.
