Well, I think that it looks more like a bug than the expected behaviour because
if you have a misspelled word which is already red underlined and you correct
it the underline will disappear automatically at first step that corrects it,
even before leaving the word. This looks like an inconsistency in behaviour.
I'm not sure if red underlining a word while typing it is the best behaviour
but this should happen at least after you leave the word (the word typing is
finished). Otherwise the user impression is that the word is correct even if it
is not. If the last word typed by the user is misspelled it could be very
easily missed. To force a user to type something else just to check that the
last word is correct is not a pleasant thing. Why a user should do that if the
typing is finished ?
