Chrome on OSX uses the system spellchecker. Nothing we can do about this in Chrome. Note that other OSX apps (e.g., TextEdit) use the same spellchecking system, so you should observe the same behavior in there.

Thanks. Verified in TextEdit.
I've now sent mail to Apple... who knows if they'll look at it (let alone fix it).
There's a work-around of right-click on the misspelled word and selecting "Add to dictionary."
