Enable spell check in "Further information" text entry

[Nicolas Delvaux]

At least for non-native English speakers, being able to easily spell check comments would be a nice feature.

The easy solution seems to use gtkspell, but this would add "python-gtkspell" (from universe) as a new dependency to checkbox...
What do you think?

Hi!

Thanks for suggesting this improvement to checkbox.

Checkbox is in main, so if we add a dependency from universe we'd have to move checkbox out of main, which we'd like to avoid. But I'm sure we can think of some other way to make this happen.

Thanks again!

I'm marking this as WONT FIX but please reopen if this is actively hampering anyone's work. My goal is to limit the number of open bugs to get a better idea as to what is really important.

Remember that you can always escalate bugs by contacting us in #checkbox on freenode (or #cert-infra in the internal IRC) or by responding in bugs directly.

Having said that, I think this is something we can track in checkbox-touch for a change (which will replace checkbox-gui going forward in 15.04 cycle)
