            Bug ID: 118309
           Summary: Writer's Word Completion forgets words after exit if
                    they're no longer present in the document
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: drowsily at cock.li

Description:
With AutoCorrect and Word Completion turned on, words which are present in a
Writer document are added to the Word Completion list. If I write a new word,
it gets added. If I leave the word there, save the document, quit Writer and
then re-open it, all the words are still on the list and are proposed by Writer
for completion when typing.

However, if I delete a word, save the document, quit Writer and then re-open
it, the word disappears from the list and is no longer auto-completed. This
effectively makes Word Completion usable only for words which are used within a
session, or which are permanently present in the document.

Yes, I made sure to disable "When closing a document, remove the words
collected from it from the list". I also made sure that AutoCorrect is turned
on ("While typing"), Word Completion is enabled, "Show as tip" is enabled,
"Collect words" is enabled, "Min. word length" is 5 and "Max. entries" is the
maximum possible (65,535).

I suspected that I may have screwed up something with setting "Max. entries" to
its maximum, so I tried it with a bit lower value (65,000), and the behavior is
the same.

The behavior is also the same in Safe Mode, but that may not be meaningful as
Safe mode doesn't preserve userProfile data by design.

Steps to Reproduce:
(see above)

Actual Results:
(see above)

Expected Results:
(see above)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
