[Bug 545424] [NEW] Spell-check underlines spaces when inserting text

[Rob Speer]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

The situation: I'm typing something in Empathy, and then I realize I
wanted to say something else before it, so I move my cursor back and
type some more.

When I do that, red underlines dance around on the words I'm currently
typing. In the end, every space character that I type ends up underlined
as a misspelling.

Steps to reproduce: in an Empathy window, type "I'm typing a sentence
here first." Then move the cursor back to the beginning of the line and
type "Now I'm typing a different sentence later." In addition to the "m"
of "I'm" being underlined (that's bug #536655), every space in "Now I'm
typing a different sentence later" is underlined.
