<pre>Description:
I have an autocorrect rule to substitute "aaa" with "bbb".
This happens only when I press "return" after the third "a"; if I press
"space", "aaa" doesn't get substituted with "bbb". It's been sometimes since I
last used libreoffice but I can remember autocorrection used to work on "space"
too, as expected.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure "Tools > AutoCorrect > While typing" is active
2. Write a sequence of characters which should be replaced by another sequence
of characters, according to the current replacement table, like "wroet", which
should be replaced by "wrote"
3. Press spacebar
Actual Results:
"wroet" isn't replaced by "wrote"
Expected Results:
"wroet" should be replaced by wrote (it happens, if you press return instead of
space at step 3).
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
OpenGL enabled: Yes
