bug#30337: auto-filling with 'However,'

[Simola Antti (VATT)]

Hi,

Thank you for your response! I noticed too that double space fixed the problem 
for that particular sentence. Still, I don’t use double space for any sentence 
and the other sentences auto-fill as they should. Is that nevertheless proper 
behavior?

Cheers,

Antti
