Description:
to delete contents of a cell:  

Open Office : select cell .. hit BACKSPACE deletes the contents
Open Office : select cell .. hi DELETE and get a dialog box first.. 

Using Backspace is TWO LESS KeyStrokes.. it's very annoying.. please fix it..

thank you in advance.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  enter data in a cell
2. use backspace to clear contents (dialog box comes up.. 2 more steps)
3. use Delete key to delete contents.. (dialog box comes up... 2 more steps) it's why I don't use
    delete key to clear contents.. the BACKSPACE no longer works as OPEN OFFICE..

Please fix.. 
thank you in advance.


Actual Results:
BACKPACE.. causes the DELETE Dialog to come up.. it should not... only when DELETE key pressed should the Delete Dialog come up.. NOT with BACKSPACE key..

This is how Open Office Does it.. please fix.. it is annoying the extra 2 keystrokes.. thank you.


Expected Results:
Hit BACKPACE on a selected cell SHOULD just clear contents.. (NO DIALOG)
hit DELETE on selected cell DOES clear contents after the Dialog comes up.. (2 extra steps).

Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
See above

BACKSPACE on selected cell should just clear contents.. no dialog

I just now started using Libre Office Calc on an existing CAL sheet made by OpenOffice.

thank you.
