Not exactly as requested, but SHIFT+SPACE / CTRL+SHIFT+SPACE selects current row / column respectively (at least in LibreOffice Calc - i didn't test it with OpenOffice!). To unselect, just move the selection using the cursor keys.

This functionality is finally built-in in LibreOffice since version 24.2.

The option can be enabled through: Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice Calc ▸ View, or through the menu entry View ▸ Column/Row Highlighting.

Info in Release notes for Libreoffice 24.2
