When I click through multiple tabs of the same workbook in Excel Online, the tabs get re-arranged almost as if I'm dragging them.
This needs to be fixed.

We invite you to go and try the new design and improved functionality of the sheet tabs, including a new drop-up sheet menu. We’d be happy to get your feedback!

Demo script - return entire table content
Would be good with a demo script showing how to return an entire tables content. Assume its something like
let entireTable = workbook.getTables('Table1');
return entireTable;
Demo script could include converting data to table first, then returning entire data content.1 voteThis code below will achieve that:
function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook) {
const entireTable = workbook.getTable(‘Table1’);
return entireTable.getRange().getTexts();
// Or return values
// return entireTable.getRange().getValues();

Examine copy and paste function within the browser version of Office 365 Excel
Copy and paste function is so hit or miss in Office 365 Excel.
For example, formatting of tables is completely lost even when I'm copying and pasting from one tab of Office 365 Excel to another.
63 votesHappy to share with you that Copy and Paste between tabs in Excel for the web is now supported.

right click paste options
Currently in Excel desktop when you copy something to your clipboard the right click menu includes a Paste Special drop down menu, as well as icons for paste, paste values, paste formula, etc etc
In Excel online the only way you can access Paste Special options is the long way round on the Home menu. Can the Paste Special drop down menu be added to the right click (or better still the icons)?
15 votesWe are happy to share that you can now find the ‘Paste Options’ in the right click menu.

Allow the time and date to be corrected or the time zone to be adjusted in Excel Online
Not so much an idea as a fix. MS should make it so you can correct your timezone (time and date) within Office Online so time and date related formulas are correct.
68 votesHey all, we’d to share that we’ve fixed the time zone on Excel for the Web workbooks to be the time zone taken from the operating system, instead the time zone taken from the host account.
Following your feedback, we understood that the main pain is the difference between the host time zone (that was set previously for Excel for the Web) and the OS time zone (that applies for Excel desktop app).
Now, the time zone will be adjusted to be the same as in your device.This new capability is supported in SharePoint Online, OneDrive and Exchange hosts.

When a document is locked (as it's being edited by another user) it would be great to know who is editing the file offline.

213 votesCurrent versions of Excel indicate who the user is, if known, that has the file locked. Please note in the help article that Steps 3 and 4 point out that you need to use a version of Excel that supports co-authoring in addition to storing the file in a location that supports co-authoring. Please see this help article: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Excel-file-is-locked-for-editing-by-another-user-6fa93887-2c2c-45f0-abcc-31b04aed68b3.
