I'm not sure when, but spell checking stopped working in Epiphany a while ago.

Upstream has not a lot of interest in making the xulrunner version work correctly since they are moving to webkit and epiphany-browser is not the default browser on ubuntu, you are welcome to send the bug upstream if you want but I don't think it's worth spending effort on code which will be totally reworked next cycle
