--- Comment #10 from Paul <[email protected]> ---
I've since discovered that the length of the document has a lot to do with how
spellcheck / correct all works. 


For shorter documents, it does work. If you paste this into a new Writer
document:

misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx
misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx
misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx misspellingxxx

and do a "correct all", the whole paragraph is immediately corrected. Perfect.

But if that paragraph is at the end of a long document, and you "correct all"
one instance of "misspellingxxx" at the doc beginning, nothing happens to the
last paragraph.

It gets worse. As you progress with spellcheck, other instances of
"misspellingxxx" along the way will not have been changed. You will have to
manually correct each of them. So letting spellcheck advance to the end of the
document (which may be impractical in one sitting with a large document with
many spelling corrections) will still not make all the Correct All changes.
