It seems for me, it's a good idea to use the (already working) selection in the
Spelling dialog window later, but there is an almost working option to add
phrases: clicking on the Options..., selecting the custom dictionary, and
Edit... The only problem is the limitation in the Add new word input box, i.e.
it doesn't  accept sapces, yet, but this limitation likely is easily removable.

Also preprocessing of the full document could help to recognize the
document-specific phrases (family names etc.) automatically, and suggest their
acceptance, selection etc. The only bottleneck is the development.

The idea of the recent development is to allow to extend the .dic file with
phrases, which are relatively frequent, but the dictionary developers didn't
want to add them to the dictionary related to the know problems with breaking
them into single words. I hope, to go beyong word-level spell checking will be
a small, but very attractive feature for them, and for every users of Writer.
