I realise that this doesn't answer your question, but Select All is 
available at Edit | Select All, so it follows that it is also at 
Alt+E,A. It is also at Ctrl+A. In addition, single click positions 
the insertion point, double click selects a word, triple click 
selects a sentence, and quadruple click selects a paragraph. 
Unfortunately for you, that's as far as the technique goes.

Note that Select All (however achieved) in a section selects only 
that section, and in a table cell selects only that cell. Repeating 
the Select All process selects everything, so you may need to do it 
twice, depending on the context.

You can customise menus and sub-menus at Tools | Customise... | 
Menus, but there is no option there to modify "context" (right-click) 
menus, so you cannot do this yourself.

Can I (or can we) add this? No, because we - on the Users list - are 
only users, like you, not developers. You are right to float this 
idea here on the Users list first, as fellow users my be able to 
offer advice and opinions; you may discover if there is general 
support for the idea. But if you want to register your idea as an 
enhancement, you need to do so at the web site (at the same place as 
you report bugs). See
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/QA/HowToFileIssue ,
http://www.openoffice.org/qa/issue_handling/basic_rules.html , and
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/ .

I trust this helps.

This should be under the Edit menu. Otherwise use Control+A
