Yeah, I know. Sadly, that is the LibreOffice bug I keep mentioning:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93430

I explained it in my response to Peter:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/orca-list/2015-August/msg00214.html

For a while, I was thinking I'd hold off on implementing this support in
Orca for LibreOffice until they fixed their bug. Then I realized that I
could improve things in Orca now -- making them at least better than
before the change -- and hopefully things will just work once they fix
their bug (i.e. without Orca users having to upgrade). But to be clear:
The LibreOffice bug needs to be fixed in LibreOffice; I cannot work
around it further to solve the issue you describe above.

That is because Gedit and Thunderbird each have completely different
spellcheck dialogs and support.

When I implemented spellcheck support, I did it that way on purpose.
However, thinking about your observation, I've realized that it is a bug
and that Orca should be consistent. Presenting child position should now
be working for spellcheck -- if that option is enabled in your Orca
preferences, of course. Please test and let me know.

This sounds like what you reported in another message, and I replied to
that. But to respond here: If focus isn't changing (and in this case
it's not), I don't think Orca should announce that focus is in the same
place it was before.

Thanks for all the testing and feedback!
