Allow (show/hide/delete) comments for selected cells. I tried to hide comments for a selected range of cells, but could not. I had a comment (that was showing) that I wanted to past to other cells. The paste worked OK, but all the comments were showing (I should have hidden the comments first). I had to hide the comments individually. Thanks, Tracey
Confirmed for LibreOffice 3.4 340m1(Build:103) on OpenSuse Linux. Right now the ability to show and delete comments only works for the selected cell in the marker. It does not apply to those that are highlighted in blue, and I guess it would be a nice functionality to include hiding multiple cells at once.

This request for enhancement is still valid in LibreOffice 3.5.1
It is possible already to delete comments from a cell range.
I looked at the code to change this. Have saved some pointers and an idea how to change this. Will ask other devs for advise.
