 The spell checker on the context menu works on right-click but fails when
 using a keyboard shortcut to show the context menu. This bug was existing
 before and still exists in Pidgin 2.0.1. I've pasted the entire text of

 Summary: Context menu key doesnt show spelling suggestions at cursor

 Initial Comment:
 The "spelling suggestions" context menu item appears
 correctly on right-click, but seems to not be
 synchronized with the input cursor location. Simply
 pressing the context menu key (or shift+f10) won't
 show proper spelling suggestions unless you first
 right-click the misspelled word and then dismiss the
 window. This seems to set some internal mark as a
 hint to the context menu. The mark should be the
 cursor position (which moves on right click) as it is
 at the time of the context menu opening, not at the
 time of the last right click.

 (I asked a friend running Gentoo to try this, he says
 the bug does not exist under Linux)

 As we have now renamed the project, and are migrating to
 developer.pidgin.im, I am closing this ticket.  Please create a new ticket
 at http://developer.pidgin.im if this issue persists with 2.0.0

 As the defect was never addressed, should probably come as
 no surprise, but just for the sake of making it known... I'm
 noticing same described issue in 2.0.0 beta 3 in Windows XP.
