Hang on, let's rewind here. Isn't what we want an application-specific 
way of deciding what language you want to spellcheck in, that defaults 
to the current locale, not a global desktop setting?

Then when you're writing a document in French, you can change your 
wordprocessor to French. The next time you open a document, or the next 
time you do anything else on the desktop that uses spellchecking, you 
default back to Your Native Language.
