You may consult the help
https://help.libreoffice.org/7.4/en-US/text/swriter/01/05090100.html (which has
different terms).

We could change it to

*Position*
(o) Full page size
( ) Start from left
( ) Start from right (I see no difference between "From Left" and "Right"; the
code [1] proves wrong; it needs more testing)
( ) Centered
( ) Manual

Is this worth the effort for documentation and l10n?

We could also drop everything and have 

(o) Automatic Spacing
( ) Manual Spacing 
    Left  [  }
    Right [  ]
    ...

meaning either full size or to always start with zero distance from the left
page border for LTR resp. from right in case of RTL. If users want something
else it can be done manually.

Since the table size is relevant for the column size we should merge both tabs
(see also bug 145739).
