--- Comment #3 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
Possibly this is the consequence of the *intended* behavior, that selection
defines the width. The idea is, that you can select (selection is not equal to
focusing!) a cell or a cell range, and the auto-fit feature will consider the
cells in the selection, ignoring cells outside. Note that when you select
column B, and try to auto-fit column A, there is no cells in A that in the
selection -> no cells must be taken into account, hence the width resets to a
default.

Note also, that the discussed feature is broken since 4.1 (bug 148008).

Regardless of the bug 148008, I don't know if the behavior discussed here is
bad, or is it actually reasonable and logical in the frame of the feature. IMO,
it looks logical: a selection is present, and has no cells to consider for this
column -> use a default. OTOH, in the same case, "-> use the widest cell" would
be also a viable option...

Note that, no matter how this should resolve, the other case, when an *empty*
cell in A is selected, A should continue to reset to a default.
