Hey,

Is it possible to make the spell-checking in Lyx case-sensitve?
For example in the following sentence I want House to be underlined 
red because it should be written in lower-case:


This is a House.


There is no way to do this in LyX, so far as I am aware. It's also not 
trivial to get right, since in the White House it should be 
capitalized, in some cases, though not in all. Not to mention at the 
beginning of a sentence. So this is almost more a job for a grammar checker.
