Not sure.
> There used to be a "Table" option in the "Insert" menu to insert a table with rows and columns. It no longer appears. The control in the default toolbar still appears with the tooltip "Insert Table (Ctrl+F12)". It seems like it should be in the Insert menu too. It used to be.
It seems like it shouldn't. Googling for "Libreoffice 5.2 insert table menu"
gives me https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2016/01/22/way-down-in-the-libreoffice-menus/
And when trying it out, what about Table -> Insert Table?
Sounds like a deliberate change to me. And that this change was already
in 5.1.x.
Can we close it? Or this is merely a wish to get it back? Then I guess
you should file that upstream (I won't pursue that, I don't use LO and
tables in writer that much that I would care much) and try to get it changed
back again. I wouldn't have very much hope there, though given it was a
deliberate change.

Rene
