Hello folks:

Congratulations and thanks for your great work and freeing us ;-). The
enhancement is about when you push the delete key; appears a dialog that maybe
is better as a popup menu option as already is, but in general we want to delete
the content of the cell (value or formula), if I want to delete other things or
all, with CTRL+Delete or the menu item is more functional, but the delete key
should be a shortcut for the most common task, delete the value or formula.

Thanks.

I absolutely agree with this user! From the very beginning, when I started
dealing with OpenOffice 1.0 in 2005, I noticed this annoying behaviour. There
shouldn't be any dialog box when you press the delete button !! This is
completely different to the behaviour of MS Excel with which we are all used
over the years. I have voted for this issue.
