--- Comment #21 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
This is not a bug. The spell check deliberately does not underline the word
that is currently having the cursor (in any part of it: at the beginning, or in
the middle, or at the end), to not annoy the user who types / edits a word.
Only after the work is knows to be "done" - i.e., when the cursor is not
"attached" to the word - the word may be underlined.

Before the fix to bug 136294, only the following edit, or pressing arrow down
(bug 124603), could trigger the re-check, so that the underline would appear.
Now, with commit 44e618096511e8f6e0a6344fab19403503c25148, any cursor movement
(using arrow keys, PgUp/PgDn, mouse, etc.) would update the underline status.
So the discussed scenario will *correctly* work this way:

1. Type adslfjalskdjsjdfkalsdjkfsjdlkdfj
2. Put cursor in the middle
3. Press spacebar
   => The cursor is at the beginning of the second word; the first word is
marked, but the second is not (e.g., a user may press Delete key to edit it).
4. Press Left Arrow key
   => The cursor is now not at the second word, so the second word gets
underlined, too.
