--- Comment #6 from Chris Mayfield <mayfiecs@jmu.edu> ---
All of the frequently used functions are available in the context menu of
the column and row headers, so these buttons provide an extra means of
accessing these functions, but definitely arent the fastest means to do so.

The context menus are just as slow as the new buttons -- both ways require two
mouse clicks to delete a row/column.

We used to have 4 buttons instead of the current 2 group buttons that had
functions for insert row, insert column, delete row and delete column, but

Those four buttons were incredibly useful. I would rather be able to "insert
before" only (in one click) than have all options buried under another button.

we now have separate insert before and after functions for both rows and
columns and that would have required 2 additional buttons to be added to the
toolbar, so it is more useful to have fewer buttons with many sub functions.

I agree fewer buttons is better by default. However, wouldn't another option be
to add the old buttons back to the "Visible Buttons" menu, so that people could
add/remove them depending on their preference?

I also think Gerry's idea of having three buttons that remember the most
recently used feature is a good solution.
