1. What button?
2. Tables have deletion in their context menu, so why not sections?

This bug is specifically about making things accessible via a context menu.

How do you anything that's hidden? You don't see whatever you've hidden after
all.

Not sure how this question is relevant here. The dialog lets you unhide things.

Tables have very rich context menus. Isn't that over-engineering?

You see the frame of a section, you want to do something with that section.
It's right there. Why should you have to open an all-document dialog and start
looking for it? Right-clicking what you want to manipulate should work in
LibreOffice.

> Merging the sections

Suppose you see two section frames which used to have more contents. You may
want to select them, then right-click, then merge them. Much more convenient
then trying to figure out their names, look them up in the dialog etc.
