--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Some ideas:
a) The label "Column type" should never be disabled.
b) The first column might be auto selected; although it's a multi-selection and
we should allow to unselect all.
c) The suggested "down arrow" may be understood as sorting feature (weak
argument, since it's added to each column) but extends the column size, which
is relevant for some users (bug 53026 and bug 141380)
d) The static tip next or rather underneath the control "Click (incl.
Ctrl/Shift) to select columns to change its type"
e) Imagine the term "Standard" is not attracting much attention. The requested
change to Text (bug 117672) could help.

My take is a) and if necessary b) and e); c) sounds like too much effort, and
d) as if UX surrenders complexity.
