I know we have mentioned this on the mailing list before, and I was actually planning \
on working on this next.

I want to get rid of inline editing altogether and use a spreadsheet-like editing as \
in KWordQuiz and of course spreadsheet programs. Here editing is enabled by typing, \
double clicking or pressing F2. Single click is used for selection.

I also don't see any advantage in having the current row selection mode as compared \
to a more free spreadsheet selection ability.

For the dialog I think it only needs to be accessible from the menu and by a sensible \
keyboard shortcut (not Return as now).

Instead I think the entry dialog should have navigation buttons so that you can move \
to the next entry either across a row or up and down a column. This would be in line \
with entry dialogs found in database applications.

Comments before I start messing up the code?
