Public bug reported:

I am seeing this on my BQ Aquarius E5.
The running ubuntu-keyboard version is 0.99.trunk.phablet2+15.04.20150818.1-0ubuntu1

It appears that the keyboard (in its attempt to auto-punctuate
sentences) is adding extra periods to the end of sentences.

My suspicion is that I'm seeing this because I'm one of those horrible
people who likes to put two spaces in between each of their sentences.

The problem can be reproduced through the following steps:

1.) Enter an app where the Keyboard is used.  (I've tested this out in both 'Notes' and 'Messages').
2.) Highlight a dialog box, bringing up the OSK.
3.) Type the sentence "This is a test." The display mirrors your keystrokes correctly (so-far)
4.) Hit the spacebar twice.  The display now shows "This is a test.. "

The same behavior can also can be seen when the sentence ends with a
different punctuation mark as well (?, !, etc.)
