Well, I see it for paragraphs: A two-state button group...

I'm being a little facetious of course, because table direction switching is
needed much more rarely and does merit "toolbar real-estate". But let's start
with having the functionality, e.g. as an UNO command which has a potential
menu item / items, and maybe an off-toolbar pair of buttons.

I would not want to mix copying and switching, because what this would
effectively mean is that you have to copy-switch then delete, which is a
hassle, especially for large tables which fill an Impress slide etc.

But - if the functionality existed and was only accessible via some keyboard
shortcut - that would already be pretty good.

So, changing the title to focus on the functionality rather than the UI
