It is somewhat random. I opened a 2 page ODT document (all text, simple
formatting) with "Spanish (Spain)" enabled for the document, most words
correctly spelled. I just started randomly clicking in the middle of correctly
spelled words and adding a random letter. Many mistakes were caught, but it
failed on the following changes:

- "particularmente" -> "particulardmente"
- "parejas" -> "parejaas"
- "debemos" -> "debxemos"

Typing and changing these words in a new document does not repeat the bug. It
is totally random.

I can offer these cases using a common language. However, I can say that my
custom technical dictionary (which is basically just a custom word list, no
rules) results in a MUCH higher occurrence of this bug, rendering spell
checking almost useless. Again, it is highly random with my custom dictionary
too, which makes it really hard to debug. But I think this proves that
something is fundamentally wrong with spellchecking for LibreOffice. Could the
developers please just copy and paste in the working OpenOffice 3.2 code and
give us the old functionality back?

Thanks!
