            Bug ID: 121779
           Summary: Autocorrect: an option to avoid auto-capitalization of
                    some words
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needsUXEval
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mikekaganski at hotmail.com

As per https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/174175:

There are some words, that explicitly must start with a lowercase character,
and may have some or all other characters uppercase: mRNA, tRNA, iPhone, fMRI.
They may get auto-capitalized as the result of applying either "Capitalize
first letter of every sentence", or "Correct accidental use of cAPS LOCK key".
There is no exception rule for such cases (currently only "Abbreviations (no
Subsequent Capital)" and "Words With TWo INitial CApitals" exist, that don't
fit to the case).

The proposal is to add such an exclusion rule; it might be either the third
list in addition to the two existing, or an option to ignore words from
dictionary which start with a lowercase, but contain uppercase characters in
the middle.
