Abbreviations ending with a period,e.g. 'Dr.' or 'Prof.' are not correctly
concidered, although they are in the dictionary. 


Reproducible: Always

Example text:

Hello Prof. Brown ...

Here the spellchecker proposes to replace 'Prof' with 'Prof.'

Verified this problem in English and German dictionary.



Expected Results:  
When a word ending with period is in the dictionary the spellchecker must not
indicate it as unknown any more.
