That 'cpo' flag is not related to spell checking.  The spell checking
relies on recognizing the abbreviation.  I don't see "the" after "St."
highlighted for that reason.

Let's call it a feature request.

Note that this won't cover everything, esp. a dot at the end of the line
would normally not have spaces after it, thus Vim can't know whether
it's the end of a sentence or not.
