Spell Check for correctly spelled words and URLs

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice Writer. 
2. Type 'functionalities' which is perfectly correct spelled word.  (Ref: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/functionalities)

Expected: Should not show red underline under this word.  
Actual: It shows this as misspelled word.  

3. Similarly, for URLs also, I could observe Red Underline which is not expected one.  

Env. Windows 8.1, LibreOffice 4.4.3.2

I am getting a similar bug. Starting last week. This thing may be on the loose.

Bug is still present for URLs.  

Eg. Try typing any website address eg. www.payilagam.com 
It is shown with red underlined i.e., Misspelled word

I would mark this as NOTABUG.

repro with 26.2+, using the example document in comment 4.

HOWEVER, none of these are hyperlinks - they are just plain text. As plain text, these are spelling violations.

By default, LO automatically converts URLs into hyperlinks as you type. So if you simply add a space after these URLs, they will be turned into hyperlinks and stop being spelling mistakes.
