   Thanks! Taking a look at why common words like "desktop" are flagged (dictionary coverage vs. the word-splitting/lookup) — fix + regression test, PR follows.

   Very common words, including non-technical terms that have been around for a long time, such as "downside" are still flagged as incorrect — I think the solution may be to change the wordlist to another entirely, or rely on system dictionaries. Perhaps look at LibreOffice's solution? (Could this issue be reopened?)
