Selecting whole column to copy data, by accident, freeze - how to hard limit
numbers of rows when running calc?

It is the 2nd process that i am driven to do reset due to such accidents. 
By accident, i select the whole row, and content is populated until the end. 
However, my system has not so many resources, and hungs. 

I would like PERMANTLY to limit the number of rows that i can manipulate in
each running of Libre calc in order to minimize the risk for hungs. 

How i can to do that?
I can hide rows permantly for each run?

ps 1. you may put a warning (as an option) to prohibit someone to do such
nonsenses. 
If it is able libre calc to precalcualate time / resources needed and exceed in
large available resources.. then such warning must be displayed. 

ps 2. I am not able to stop the process on the fly. 
You must employ such method for a user to be able to stop immediatelly any
calculation on the fly. I pressed as a maniac ESC before hungs but nothing.... 

Note that I think most users dont like reseting their machine. Me too.
