Spell check in current released versions of 6.2X has several "unique"
features that are different from 4.7x and are very annoying.

1. When selecting a single word in a composition, 4.7x would only spell
check that word.  6.2x wants to start at the beginning of the
composition each time.  This is not an improvement to what was a good
feature.

2.  When replying to an email spell check now wants to check the
spelling of the entire document, not just the new text added into the
reply.  It is incorrect for it to want to modify the original text of
the message as this alters the original senders message and in
government and enterprise environment this is a big taboo. 4.7X would
only check the newly added text.

3. If the pref is set to auto spell check on send there is no way to
cancel the sending of the message. Under 4.7x you could "stop" the spell
check and it would stop the sending of the message.  As it stands now
when you click "close" on the spell check window it is almost impossible
to get to the "cancel" button on the sending dialogue before the message
is sent.

4.  When spell check completes you have to click "stop" to close the
spell check window.  In 4.7x when spell checked completed it
automatically close the window and sent the message.  This extra click
is unnecessary.
