Damage auto '+' code has problems with selecting all, then typing.
When you select all, the first number typed replaces the selected text, as expected. If you type a second digit, then a '+' is inserted which should probably not happen.
It is very difficult to figure out what exactly the user would want. State tracking is tricky.
Maybe it's possible to track the focus: if the cell has focus, disable auto '+' insertion. But, if the cell does not have focus, how do we see if this is the first character inserted?
When cell does not have the focus, but a new edit event is started, then auto-insert '+'. If the cell has focus (the user has double clicked on it, then never auto-insert. When selecting all, the cell MUST have the focus, so this issue is resolved.
