Bug in selection intervals??

["Daniel P. Dougherty" <doughe57 msu edu>]

It used to be in prior versions of Gnumeric that you could select the entire 
column by clicking on the column header when doing a linear regression.  Now 
when I do this I just get gibberish.

Similar frustrations now also occur when trying to do a histogram.  Selecting 
an entire column without having to drag the entire region worked in previous 
versions of Gnumeric.  Why has this basic functionality disappeared?  Is this 
a bug in the new version??  Based on the output I'm seeing it seems to be a 
bug and have something to do with 65536 as the maximum number of rows is the 
Gnumeric sheet getting treated as data (possibly as zeros)  even though the 
cells are empty!!  Previous versions were smart enough to detect where in the 
block of real data ended and the empty cells started.
