I once noticed when toying with the MS grammar checker that if there are
too many errors in a text (e.g. because the language attribute is
inappropriate) it displays a message like "too much errors encountered.
Maybe it is foreign text..." and stops grammar checking and turns the
display of errors off.
I don't know the reason for this. Is it a possible performance problem
or do they just not want to have that much text marked as wrong?
The question is: Do we need something like this as well?
Another interesting thought. I guess it probably comes under
'premature optimisation', but would be worth bearing in mind for the
future.
I hate this 'feature' in MS Office, really. If you have a lot of
specialist terminology, the spell checker will shut down (for Polish,
user dictionaries get garbled very fast, so using them is asking for
trouble). I couldn't spell check my Ph.D. dissertation because of this.
I never found this feature usable for any purpose, either. So I'm
strongly opposed to it.
Best,
Marcin
