The handling of sheets (delete, copy, insert, move) does conflict with the users
habits: 
1. The sheet to be copied/moved etc. is referred to in the menus as “Tabelle”
(lit.: table) instead of “Tabellenblatt” (spreadsheet) as in MSO Excel.
2. The context menu on the sheet index tab behaves differently than that of MSO
Excel as well, without being more intuitively usable: it still contains cut,
copy, paste, which does not refer to the entire sheet but to the cell selected
by the cursor position.
3. In the Edit menu, the user has to go into the submenu “Tabelle” to then find
move/copy, select, and delete.
Thus, the user just chooses “Einfügen” or ”Ausschneiden” (Insert or Cut) or
deletes contents instead of “Tabelle einfügen/löschen” or even opening the Edit
menu entry “Tabelle”.

Recommendation: Support habits learned using MSO Excel:
1. Omit functions on tab index that do not refer to the entire sheet.
2. Change the German wording “Tabelle” for Spreadsheet into “Tabellenblatt”.
