Hi Rafael,

and thank you. I'm aware that lines can be moved by mouse drag&drop. It works
fine for small tables. But please consider this scenario:

- You have a spreadsheet with 5 tables
- Each table contains 10,000 rather random looking lines
- You need to make lots of manual line moves, in some cases multiple lines
- Some of the moves go from one table to another

In this scenario, drag&drop is not only impractical but impossible.

In Microsoft Excel, easy moving of lines without mouse has always been
possible:

>Select the cell, row, or column that you want to move or copy.
>Do one of the following:
>    To move rows or columns, on the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click 
> Cut Button image or press CTRL+X.
>    To copy rows or columns, on the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click 
> Copy Button image or press CTRL+C.
>Right-click a row or column below or to the right of where you want to move or 
>copy your selection, and then do one of the following:
>   When you are moving rows or columns, click Insert Cut Cells.
>   When you are copying rows or columns, click Insert Copied Cells.</quote>

I think it would be extremely useful to have this really basic functionality in
Calc, too. In fact, I've always wondered why it has never been implemented!
