This has become a problem again with me. I used the "$HOME/.local/share/myspell-selected" workaround from https://askubuntu.com/questions/299398/mozilla-thunderbird-spellcheck-has-too-many-listed-languages but it stopped working again a while ago (a year?).

In thunderbird spellcheck I how have
- 6 varieties of German
- 7 varieties fo French
- 5 varieties of English and
- 19 varieties of Arabic

I'm using English localization and have AR, DE, FR installed as I need the keyboard from time to time. Not sure why it is not possible to select only ONE variety of each language. (Especially for Arabic I have the impression that the varieties are for the most part only copies of Standard Arabic. Would be helpful if a solution comes up some time.
