For tables/indices - no, it isn't:

1. It's not a safety measure, since these tables/indices are generated 
content, which can later be re-generated. In fact, it is _safer_ to 
delete a generated table/index than any other piece of content.


2. It's not a measure against deleting the content, it's intended to 
prevent selective alteration of it.


And I should also mention the "safety measure" claim has already been 
made and replied to on the bug page.


I'm sorry I couldn't attend, I was at work.

[libreoffice-design] Minutes from the UX/design meeting 2022-Nov-17

[Heiko Tietze]

Present: Cor, Heiko
Comments: Rafael, Stuart, Timur

Tickets/Topics

 * Suggestion for a new feature - setting the default border line width
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144141
   + suggest to remember the last used value (Rafael, Cor)
   + one default for all controls (eg. cell / page style in calc, tables
 in Writer, shapes...) or individually?
 + makes no sense to have the same setting everywhere so best we remember
   it individually (Cor)
   => do it

 * Make the Erase command accessible via the toolbar
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151937
   + add .uno:Delete as standard command to context menus
   + a) resolve WF since LibreOffice requires a keyboard
   + b) let users customize the command (also WF) (Stuart)
   + c) to add the function everywhere
   + d) just add it to one/a few specific context menu
   + afraid to open pandora's box (Cor)
   => resolve WF because of customization

 * Enter group: functionality to add an existing shape to a group is missing
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145359
   + Jim submitted a first patch
 + amazing work, nothing to add
   => go for it

 * Allow regular deletion of selection containing an entire
   generated index/table
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152030
   + at creation time and later it is possible to unset the protection flag
   + the context menu provides delete
   => not deleting protected content is a safety measure and
   should be kept -> WF/NAB

 * Rename Enable very large spreadsheets (16m rows, 16384 cols) option
   to shorter and more correct
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151155
   + simply go with "Enable large spreadsheets" and show details in
 a tooltip (Heiko)
   + we have enough space, why bother; and the additional info might
 be of value for some users (Cor, Timur)
   => WF/NAB
