Unfortunately, this is something unrelated to the problem discussed here. It is
obvious from the design of the spell checker feature in Chromium-based
applications that Chromium *doesn't* detect the text language from keyboard
layout, and relies on user explicitly telling it which dictionaries to apply to
the text in the boxes. This "All your languages" selection wouldn't be
necessary if Chromium could use the layout information to choose the dictionary
itself - and this is exactly the problem raised here.
