[Mediawiki-l] BETA Spellchecker

[SJ]

I would allow dictionary-additions for each user, and perhaps by
specialty topic, not globally.  There could later be a package that
lets admins look at the union of all private dictionary-additions, and
add some of those to the global dict...  the set of all words,
acronyms, names, and abbreviations which are usable in some context is
large.

As it is, you could offer a user the option to only use a simple
dictionary of 30k words or so when offering suggestions; the
suggestions list can be very long.
