Ok, so I've had this issue since 10.2 or 10.2.1 and persists on 10.3.1. I have both English and Slovenian keyboard, but when I write "do" or "ok" it substitutes with ')' and '(' when I press space. As you might imagine it's a bit annoying. Any ideas? Wipe doesn't help.

I don't know the thinking as to why it does this with Slovenian , but you can work around it by using word substitution.
Go to system settings->language and input->prediction and correction->word substitution->add shortcut.
Add shortcuts mapping " ok" to "ok", and "so" to "so", adjusting the capitalization setting as you see fit, then you should be good to go.
HTH.
Yeah I thought about that solution, but.. does it really have to come to this? I'm thinking of reporting the bug
If you think it's a bug, then report it if you can.
To identify the root of the problem, a quick google search tells me that the Slovenian word for 'bracket' is 'oklepaj' so I'm guessing this is a default word substitution set on the device in Settings > Language and Input > Prediction and Correction > Word Substitution. I assume there is a similar word related to brackets that starts with 'do'? Either removing these default word substitution or, as baarn said, mapping a new word substitution should fix your problem.
It's interesting that you say this issue persists on 10.3.1 because I know on 10.2.1 "br" used to be a default word substitution that changed to a bracket, but they took it out of the default list on 10.3.1 as far as I can tell, so I'm surprised they didn't do the same for the Slovenian equivalent.
I don't think they would use works like these for substitution since 'do' is commonly used. I have reported this to JIRA, let's see what happens. But "ok" could be used as short for 'oklepaj' although it just sounds stupid
