Well it would seem more usefull to me to be able to change the actual
language on the fly. Otherwise I have to recreate a manager-class for
every single call I make to the spellchecker (when the language changes)
as otherwise I would always to keep track which languages I already
have a manger for and only alocate a new one in a list if I didn't have
it, this seem a bit complicated to me, if we could have it really much
more simple.
Well we could make a helper function which does just this something like
spellcheck_this_string(language, string)
and then in there have the different managers for the different languages.
But this seems to me as a work the library should do (obviouly it would not
be too hard). And then we also would not have to create a new manager for
every document as we can just use the same function for all documents.
