Hi

Another problem with spell checking, is the quality
of the Esperanto Hunspell dictionary.  It's not good
enough. Too many correct words are highlighted
because they are missing in the dictionary. That's
not LT's faults here.

To be fair, it's hard to make an Esperanto dictionary
with Hunspell because Esperanto is an agglutinative
language. Hunspell only supports two prefixes/suffixes
But Esperanto words can often use more of them.
Working around it is messy I think.

Given all the unresolved issues at least in all the languages
that I maintain (br, fr, eo), can we consider turning
Hunspell off by default? I'm concerned that people
downloading the nightly build will experience many
spurious errors.

As an experiment, I also commented out the Hunspell
rule in src/java/org/languagetool/language/Breton.java
and LT is then more than twice faster (even when comparing
using -d HUNSPELL_RULE).
