[Grammar checker] Undocumented change in the API for LO 4

Hi *,

It seems that there is a change in the grammar checker behavior which seems
undocumented anywhere.

The change is in this function:
http://api.libreoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/linguistic2/XProofreader.html#doProofreading

With LibreOffice 3, each paragraph of a text is passed once to this function
in the parameter aText, and the parameters nStartOfSentencePosition and
nSuggestedBehindEndOfSentencePosition are the beginning and the end of the
paragraph to check.

With LibreOffice 4, each paragraph of a text is passed several times to this
function in the parameter aText, and the parameters nStartOfSentencePosition
and nSuggestedBehindEndOfSentencePosition are the beginning and the end of
each sentence of this paragraph.

Is this a bug ? a feature ? an undocumented change ?

This change provokes unexpected errors with the French grammar checker.

Imho, the previous way to parse texts was better than the new one, as it’s
up to each grammar checker to decide what to do with the paragraph, how to
split it if necessary, etc.

Regards,
Olivier R.
