One feature I used quite frequently in Excel was the ability to easily reference
an entire column in a formula. Entering "=SUM(A:A)" in Excel returns the sum of
all elements in column A in Excel. In Calc, I get #NAME? instead.

I find this feature useful because it makes it easy to continue adding data to
the column even after the formula has been entered. I have verified that the
feature is missing on 1.1.4 and 2.0 Beta 1.9.104. Not supporting this limits
compatibility with Excel!
