Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Pressing Backspace (the key above \ and to the right of =) with a cell
selected brings up the Delete Contents dialog.  Pressing Delete (below
Insert and to the left of End) deletes the cell contents without any
dialog.  This is in contradiction to the manual, which states "Pressing
Backspace deletes content without calling the dialog or changing
formats." and also in contradiction to the behavior on the Windows
version of OO calc, where pressing Backspace incurs no dialog.
Backspace otherwise has the correct functionality in text entry,
deleting the character immediately before the cursor, while Delete
removes the character immediately following the cursor.

I was not able to resolve this using the Tools->Customize... interface,
because there is no keybinding available for "Delete contents without
dialog".

** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu)
