Hi, even for 'non-single-user' installation, for desktops I think it
reasonable to assume that all users speak more or less same language and
it would be very rare if this includes several different English
variants. :)

Actually, if I could make a suggestion here it seems to me that now all
dictionaries installed somewhere in /usr/share/(myspell|humspell) and
there is a lot of simlinking involved. So, it might make sense to allow
users to make something like ~/.myspell, ~/.mhunspell which links to
dictionaries. With help of command line, maybe some scripts or simple UI
around this one could select set of languages he uses. And the only
change needed for this - to make spell checking libraries look for
dictionaries in somewhere home dir, and if that dir doesn't exist - in
system location.
