Comment 4 for bug 3219

Hi! Although I agree with you that
from a user standpoint, this is really
a bug. But I am quite convinced that
from the programmer view, this is
a bit hard to implement, because
of the different spell checkings
implementations.

Actually, I was not even able to have
my gedit have an english or french
dictionary installed (I tried to install
aspell, ispell, with iamerican and ifrench).

So I looked for the GNOME Gedit page
at: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gedit/
and the associated bugs, and found
this bug that have a patch to have
gedit spell checker use Enchant, that
wish to integrate the different spell
checkers technology:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316031

Unfortunately, the spell checker is
a plugin in Gedit, and, reading this
message, I see that they are totally changing their internal technology
for plugins (don't know how much
advance this is). See:
http://live.gnome.org/Gedit_2fNewMdi

So, briefly, I permit myself to change
the severity of this bug from normal
to wishlist. I indeed wish
that adding a word in one editor's
dictionary, an other editor's dictionary would find it too (for the same language).
it.
