I would avoid taking away the focus from the other object. Might be that the user wants to spell check this one.
By the way, I use GOTO OBJECT(wp)sets the focus to wp but not for the spell checker in the same object method. The refresh of the area happens only after the object method is finished. Therefor wp has not yet the focus for the spell checker in the same method. So, no bug, way it works. Disabling is the best choice.
