I was wondering if this could be implemented into Hunspell.

Hunspell has no knowledge about formatting. The closest thing one could do in OpenOffice is to add an option not to check the words in italics. Something like the uppercase check that is available in Tools - Options - Language Settings - Writing Aids - Options. I have no idea of how hard it is (maybe OpenOffice strips formatting too before sending words to the spell checker!) but theoretically this could be investigated.

Of course, words in italics would then simply be ignored, not checked against a dedicated dictionary as you propose.
