Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 73545
There should be a way to select no cells at all

Expected: * Hitting "escape" should remove focus from all cells. The last focused position is recorded. * Hitting a directional key should return / resume focus (ie, the next cell down) * While unfocused, typing in information is not possible (only directional commands can be entered). Useful for: * You don't want to accidentally bump the keyboard and wipe over details * You don't want to select that cell as default text (if 73544 was implemented) Similar in behaviour to vim (ie; you have to go into INSERT mode)
IMHO this should be as it is now, but it's not my decission.
