I've just reviewd it. The bug has been close after discussion and substantiation. It sound to me the the crux of the argument is summarized in comment #6 [ > Perhaps the problem is that LibreOffice doesn't distinguish between "all the > cells" and "the whole table". Yes, that exactly seems to be the point. I will think about that some days (other reports, Mailing lists, did I see any similar requests, ...) and check how an enhancement request could have prospect of success ] > The bug has been reproduced and has documentation in the user interface, so > triage should now be complete and it should now be ready for developer > attention if it hadn't been closed as "notabug" Because it is not a bug. it is a consistent UI behavior (as in selection of bunch of cells versus selection of a 'table'. you can describe a UI enhemcement in order to be able to select a 'whole table' versus selecting a bunch of cells... but that is not a bug... especially since the behavior has been documented is the associated user guide. > Only a developer is in a position to know if the inconsistent table handling > behaviour documented in the bug report was intended to be like that, or is > infact a bug. Developers trust the QA team to triage. You are welcome to disagree with their conclusion and even to bring attention to your disagreement to wider circle... but dismissing a reasoned 'not-bug' on the ground that the person doing the closing is not a 'developer' is an Ad Hominem fallacy and is unlikely to achieve your goal. More constructive would be to develop a consensus based on the common ground that was found in comment 6 and evolve this to a Request For Enhancement.
