There is some good discussion in the linked OOo bug report on this. Paraphrasing fyva... > For tables with merged cells, there are no columns or rows, there are only > cells. When you select a few cells and click "delete row" or "delete column", > you can't delete neither a row nor a column (there are no rows, no columns), > you can either delete the whole table or merge the cells with right, left, > upper or lower cells, by your choice, because each cell have a lot of adjacent > cells. This gets really complicated.
