you can just do this before you spell check.

        {
                s/./ ./g;  # Would make Test. Test .
                s/,/ ,/g;  # etc. for other punctuation marks.
                ....spellcheck....
                s/ ././g;  # Make Test . back to Test. after spell check
                s/ ,/,/g;  # etc........
        }

                its not very pretty but it will work no?
