Absolutely not. The intention was never to exclude anything that already
exists. It's to allow the user a modicum of control when data exists in both
columns.
Excluding the left column from the equation removes both control and
functionality.
If, as you observed, the system selects the right column if no data exists in
the left column then that's already half the logic resolved

If there is no right column - and I'm assuming you're implying there is no left
column - then of course nothing can be done.

If there is no right column but there is a left column then the user will
notice the lack of compliance annnnnd - Doh, I really do want the left column,
let's do it the normal way and just double click.

I concur with one of the earlier comments - "what happens with hidden columns
adjacent to the target column" This is already the topic of an existing report
where there is inconsistency between copying across hidden columns v copying
down through hidden rows" and of course the situation whare an array
encompassing both hidden columns and rows is drag filled.
Sorry, I searched but cannot find the report number. I know it exists because I
filed it.
