--- Comment #3 from Stéphane Guillou (stragu) <stephane.guillou at libreoffice.org> ---
Thanks for clarifying, Peter.

I found an even better match on Ask.LO: someone asking for a way to attach a
dictionary to a file (like we allow embedding fonts):
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-do-i-attach-a-custom-dictionary-to-a-libreoffice-document/30535
(on top of the related
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/saving-personal-dictionary-the-words-i-added-to-libreoffice-dictionary-saving-or-copying-them-to-another-computer/30781)

I can see the use case, where a file with specialist language that will
probably only ever pertain to that specific document, needs sharing around to
different contributors, or editing on different computers. The example of
writing fiction with heavy world-building.

UX/Design team, what do you think about supporting attaching a dictionary to a
file? Has it been suggested before? Would involve extending the format and a
fair bit of UI changes, I guess...
