Why isn't this a bug? nobody wants blah. to expend to blahself.

[talkaminker]

exactly!
right now, blah. will expand to blahself.
this is the behavior that should be fixed

[j2bbayle]

This should definitely be a bug!
It can become really annoying, especially when writing documentation where correct sentences end with a dot ., turned into self. when pressing "Enter" for a new line.
