(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #19)
The supposed workflow, as I understand, is to create a bar chart and add
error bars (actually whiskers) later. The whisker can have a constant value,
a relative to Y, and a range. Something like:

Mean  SD
8,42  0,96
1,79  0,98
6,01  0,35

with chart range = A2:A4 and error range = B2:B4

What I don't understand is how the statistics (standard deviation, error,
variance...) should be calculated (and if it's really needed). So what's
needed for a MVP?

Just to be clear: this enhancement was proposed for XY charts. The "box and
whiskers plots" might be added in the same time (or not, I don't know). 

I'm not a statistics specialist. However, as I understand it, nothing has to be
calculated since the user will (in the most general case) provide all the
values (cells) required for "box and whiskers plots".
