I very recently began using the Leo-Editor spell checking facility.  
Whenever a correctly spelled word was flagged as misspelled, I hit the 
"Add" button to add the word to my dictionary.  All seemed fine till the 
next time I used Bazaar to pull the latest changes.  Then I noticed that 
"adding" a word, changed the Leo-Editor source controlled file 
leo/plugins/spellpyx.txt.

Unless I'm missing something, this is undesirable.

An ordinary Linux user who installs Leo-Editor probably does not have write 
permission for leo/plugins/spellpyx.txt.  Doesn' this mean that the "Add" 
button doesn't work for him?

For me, this problem is different.  I use the bzr-explorer diff facility to 
find the difference between my leo/plugins/spellpyx.txt and the last pulled 
version.  I then save my additions.  Then I revert 
leo/plugins/spellpyx.txt.  Then I pull the latest Leo-Editor version.  Then 
I add my additions to the latest leo/plugins/spellpyx.txt. I have 
semi-automated some of these steps with a Leo-Editor script that I execute 
with Ctrl-B.

Does anyone see a simpler procedure?

Isn't requiring users to change a file that is a Leo-Editor, 
source-controlled source file a bad idea?
