To be clear, I've cleaned up the spellchecker interface so that it is now quite easy to add support for another spellchecker library. So hunspell and Enchant are the obvious candidates but the code is not written yet.
so we currently support only aspell?

Yes.

 i seem to remember some request for Uwe
to include hunspell sources in the installer...

We include MyThes, and there were talks about MySpell, which is a subset
or superset (who really knows?) of hunspell.

It's the other way around: hunspell is the successor of myspell which has been abandonned. Hunspell is used in OpenOffice, Firefox and Thunderbird. AFAIK, these project all integrates the hunspell source code but I am not sure (I just read that somewhere).

Replying to myself:

* When building, OpenOffice download hunspell-1.2.8.tar.gz, patch it (with a patch in its svn) and compile it.
* Mozilla maintain a copy of the hunspell sourcecode in its cvs.

I don't know if Linux distributions tweak Openoffice and Mozilla to compile with their own libhunspell but I am a bit dubious because hunspell has some #ifdef for mozilla and for openoffice.
