All mozilla needs is an API for the spell checker.
Then a small piece of middleware can be written to link it to any 
available spell checkers.
Then in time the mozilla team can write a great spell checker and use 
the existing API.
That way no single platform spell checker code has to be written into 
mozilla but a rout to quick fixes exists in the interim.
