Summary: Ending a sentence with 'admin' doesn't auto-capitalize the start of the next sentence.

Steps to Reproduce:
Type a sentence into an auto-capitalizing text field like an email. End it with the word 'admin'. Sample keystrokes:

H
i
[space]
a
d
m
i
n
[space][space]
w
o
r
d

Expected Results:
The text should read, "Hi admin. Word", because double tapping [space] should add a period, a space, and auto-enable the Shift key for the start of the next sentence.

Actual Results:
The text reads: "Hi admin. word" with a lowercase 'w'. The 'w' is not auto-capitalized.

Regression:

Notes:
I suspect this is because 'admin' is considered an abbreviation, but it seems to be in common enough usage that this should be considered a bug. I've tested this on two iPhones and an iPad running iOS 5.1.1, but I couldn't file a bug on "iOS" (see rdar://11496939) so I flied this under iPhone

Comments

Fixed in iOS 6.0 beta 2.
