--- Comment #26 from Stepas Toliautas <stepas.toliautas@gmail.com> ---
a) assign Del key to Delete Table action even when cells (and not just the
frame) are selected; or
b) make single-click on the edge of fully-selected table select (or toggle
selection of) only the frame. Currently, if all cells are selected,
single-click on the edge does nothing, and double-click unselects/ removes
focus from the table.

I'm leaning towards b) or some similar operation myself because Del and Ctrl-X
doing the same thing (deleting selected data) is common and consistent usage in
today's application UI. It's just that selecting the table instead of its
contents is difficult here. IIRC, tables in Writer are cleared if their content
is selected, but can be deleted either by right-clicking -> Delete Table or by
selecting them as text element (that is, putting cursor in a line before table,
holding Shift and pressing right or down arrow until the table and its
surroundings are selected) and then pressing Del. In Impress, there are no
"surroundings", so no second choice.
