BuildID:    2000112204

The menu item in the Composer, Table, Columns, Delete should be disabled if the 
user does not choose any columns in a table. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. I made a 3row x 10col table.
2. I used control to select 3 columns of *one* row (the first row), in the 
middle (like cols 3-6)
3. I did the menu items Table, Delete, Columns. 
4. Mozilla did not do anything because I selected only a single row, not all the 
rows for the columns.


Expected Results:  The user is required to select columns in order to do Table, 
Delete, Columns. If they have not selected columns, the menu item Table, Delete, 
Columns should be disabled. 

The same goes for other items on Table, Delete. If the user does not select a 
whole row, Table, Delete, Row should be disabled. 


Disable menu/toolbar items that do nothing if the user hasn't done the required 
steps (like selecting something).

I disagree. Since selecting columns is not easy, being able to delete the column
where your caret is in is very usefull.

Actually, reading the first desciption more carefully, we actually do exactly
what is requested.

We can do what was requested: select any number of cells, and use "delete row or
column" to delete multiple rows/columns.
