--- Comment #18 from Ryan Code <[email protected]> ---
After looking into this further, the main point of user friction appears to be
the default behaviour of plain click-drag on row/column headers.

Currently:

 -Click-drag = expands selection
 -This competes with the idea of treating the header as a structural object
that can be reordered

One possible interpretation would be to repurpose the existing gesture:

 -Click = select header
 -Click-drag = reorder

Selection via headers would remain through modifier use:

 - Shift-click = range select

Back to the initial question above ("It is too difficult to figure out how to
change the order of columns or rows"): In this context, drag-selection on
headers may be redundant and does not appear to match what users intuitively
try first. This is a worthwhile discussion.
