--- Comment #1 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
@jfblagden: the default language for spellchecking documents is the language
you choose in the Options - Language Settings and also dependent on any
langpacks you have installed.

If you don't have the relevant langpack installed, how do you expect to have
the correct dictionary by which to compare the spelling ? The Writing Aids
entry under the Language Settings allows a user to add further dictionaries, if
necessary by downloading from the extensions website, and have those
dictionaries included by the spellchecker, so either I am failing to understand
what kind of enhancement you are requesting or else this is simply invalid and
will be marked as such.

Please explain what exactly you envisage as a functional enhancement request.
Perhaps you are suggesting that we provide a LibreOffice app download with a
complete set of dictionaries ? A decision was made against this at the
beginning of the project's creation due to storage/build constraints.

Is the problem specific to Mac OSX, it doesn't appear to be so to me when I
compare it to Linux versions of LibreOffice, the same thinking is present -
individual langpacks that the user then configures as he/she desires.
