I'm a linguist working with Khoisan languages. I noticed Open Office 
autoformats capital letters after punctuation marks, making them lowercase, and 
for the longest time I couldn't figure out what option that was under. For 
instance, the language !Ora was changed to !ora, and ǂHaba as ǂhaba. 

Finally a friend suggested the option "Correct two initial capitals" and it 
worked; when I turned that off, then I was able to type names and words 
properly. Why are |, !, ǂ etc. seen as capital letters? I want it to correct it 
if I type something like !ORa, but !Ora is a perfectly normal word. 

Is this intentional?  I asked in the dev irc channel, the regular channel, and 
the forum, and got no reply anywhere.  

It's pretty easy to reproduce the bug: just type ! followed by any letter.  I 
haven't gone through every possible punctuation mark to see which affects it, 
but at the very least ǃ ǂ ǀ and ǁ do.  

Thanks!
