Yep - but of course it requires extensions to be installed that handle
the language related stuff.

Júlio, if you could work on improving the current Extension workflow -
this would be great. Currently, it requires to go to a certain site,
filter manually, download the extension to a temporary location, install
it within LibO/OOo (if it works and you downloaded the correct version),
delete the temporary file. Wow!

Firefox (more or less): Open the "extension" manager, mark one of the
highest rated extensions for installation, wait. Done.

Cheers,
Christoph
