Spell as you check sometimes "cuts" words short at beginning of line short

Fairly frequently, it will identify a "misspelled" word at the beginning
of a line by underlining only the first part of a word.  Seems to happen
with text that is pasted into a mail message.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Just repeated this twice in the same sitting on 1.5rc1.  Both times it happened when text was pasted into a mail message.

I have seen this as well since I installed 1.5rc1 (from 1.0.7)

Bug 336719 is for fixing paste and drag-and-drop for spellchecking.
