2 spaces after a full stop, but nobody does that nowadays.

One suggestion is to actually do a search for 2 spaces and decide if you
wish to replace them with one space.
There is one caveat however, and that is whether or not your class insists
on two spaces between sentences. The trend these days tends to be just one
space, and indeed web browsers will usually only show one space.
Not sure how to answer your second question at the moment.

The ability to know when I have accidentally typed two spaces would be very
useful. Two of my Creative Writing Class are currently editing one of my
stories and one of the ost common errors they have found is that in places I
have spacing gaps. So I can see how this function might be useful but feel a
subtle tone would be more helpful than the screenreader constantly saying
"space marker".
One of the other errors was that on two occasions I'd accidentally changed
the font. I know that by pressing insert f in Jaws I can be told what
formatting I have but is there anyway in which I can be alerted when there
is a significant formatting change?
