Description:
Removing duplicates ion a column is a somewhat hidden feature, and even when you know how to do it, needs a log of clicks.
This is in contrast with other office applications I won't name...
I found this to be a problem when trying to migrate my users from MS to LO.

See this blog post for the desription of the procedure on both applications: http://www.oaultimate.com/office/handling-duplicate-values-in-ms-excel-and-libreoffice-calc.html

Steps to Reproduce:
1.try to remove or highlight duplicates
