> Repeat insert [Shift+Ctrl+Y]

Issues with that:

1. It's a keyboard shortcut, and I'm talking about toolbar buttons for a
mouse-focused workflow. Or, you could find it on the menu as Edit > Repeat, but
that's again two clicks.
2. More importantly - that's only relevant if you do nothing between
insertions; my motivation is when you _do_ do other things between consecutive
actions.

Yes, fair enough.


> Customize your UI (.uno:InsertColumnsBefore / .uno:InsertColumnsAfter)

1. I asked for the _last_ action to be saved. Not a _specific_ action. I
(kinda) like the menubutton - I just want to be able to make it more useful.
Adding one, or two, or five, toolbar buttons would just clutter things up.
2. Even if customization worked for me - I'm still interested in the default UI
behavior.

But the problem isn't that I am unable do something. It's that we have an
under-utilized button. None of the suggestions solve that.
