Default Ignoring spelling of words in UPPERCASE should also ignore plurals

When I you choose to ignore the spelling of words in UPPERCASE (in Word), the
program should also ignore obvious plurals of these uppercase words. In
non-Americanised english, we don't use apostrophes to indicate the plural of
abbreviations.
So if I have more than one PDF, I have PDFs. Word should automatically
ignore PDFs (for example), just like it would ignore PDF.

Extensions are lowercase, but abbreviations are uppercase. PDF is correct.
MyDocument.pdf is also correct.

Actually, extensions are lower case. Besides, just add it to your

dictionary
and it won't hit on it as a misspelled word.
