--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Defaults will populate the Word Completion item set with a default minimum word
length of 8 characters, not 6.

And the word completion trigger starts at 3 characters and pulls from the
SfxItemSet of the OfaAutoCompleteTabPage [1] _alphabetically_. 

For example using the dummy text (DT) autotext fill, typing "dea" will return
"dead-end" rather than "deadbeat". Continuing to type "deadb" will move to the
next entry.

Adding additional complexity: to detect typos, grammar, or even word frequency
to the mix would not add much function--but would impose considerable overhead
to the current collect & match processes.

Seems the only real enhancement to be had would be to provide a means to move
within the match list and pass over a not desired/bad entry, and see the next
match, or to then move back.

Maybe even to delete a bad entry from there, without having to reopen the
AutoCorrect dialog -> Word Completion tab.

As presented => WF
