At present in OOo Calc if you try to edit a cell which is a part of an array.
user get a message "You cannot change only part of an array"
A better feedback would have been giving an option to select the entire array.

Steps:-
1. in OOo Calc goto cell "B3"
2. enter formula "={1;2;3}"
3. press ctrl+shift+enter to enter array data
4. move to cell "B3" again
5. try to edit cell content by
   a) either pressing "F2" key, 
   b) or by double clicking cell "B3"

Result:-
* user get message "You cannot change only part of an array"
* clicking OK goes back to cell "B3" after doing nothing

see: ooo_edit_array_cell.png


Expected:-
* user should get message asking

  ================= Edit array ? ================
  You are trying to edit part of an array.
  to edit an array you have to select whole array.

  Do you want select whole array?
  
          [Select]   [Cancel]
  ==============================================

* with default as "Select" button
* upon confirming selection, OOo Calc should select whole array.
* pressing "cancel" should do current behaviour
