  * Modify the build system so that presage databases are only updated
    when manually requested, instead of during every compile.
  * Add user input to the word ribbon as the first entry, allowing for
    autocomplete suggestions to be overridden. Use the selection of that
    entry as the cue to add words to the user spell check dictionary and
    filter presage's predictions based on what words are in the spell
    check dictionary. (LP: #1318808)
  * Re-evaluate the state of autocaps when the user is deleting
    characters and when the cursor position changes to the beginning of
    a field (LP: #1312329)

  [ Ubuntu daily release ]
  * New rebuild forced

Title:
  no way to remove word candidates

Status in Ubuntu Keyboard:
  In Progress
Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  New
Status in “ubuntu-keyboard” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When word suggestions and auto-complete are turned on, there is no way
  to disable word candidates for a particular word you want to type that
  might not be in the list.

  For example: I want to type "Hello my friend how are you?"

  When typing I get to: "Hello my friend" and the word candidate shows
  "friends" and no candidate for "friend". Pressing the spacebar causes
  "friends" to be inserted and there is no way to prevent this. Happens
  with a lot of other words as well as our word suggestions are not
  always what you'd want/expect.

  I think we should have a small "x" button on the far right of the word
  ribbon that when pressed will clear the word candidates for the
  current words, which would allow the user to essentially disable the
  feature just for the current word.
