I have started to believe the double word bug is deeper than just double
words.
It seems as though what ever is causing duplicating words can similarly
remove words (i.e. like it cuts a word out of the sentence).

e.g. "The quick brown dog jumped..." might become "The quick dog jumped..."

There was also a case of having stopped typing a sentence, and the last two
words were repeated. The words were sufficiently obscure that I'm sure I
wouldn't have actually typed the words twice.

The words were:
"retrospective analysis"
which became:
"retrospective analysis retrospective analysis"

The double words are still occurring. Fortunately the advanced find and
replace can be used to locate them. However, it obviously cant recover a
deleted word nor does it do well at finding a pair of duplicated words.
