This question is best answered here:
http://users.tkk.fi/~ptvirtan/programs/tmispell.html.en

For clarification: the "Soikko" mentioned on the page is a Finnish 
spellchecking system/library (being superceded by Voikko which is it's GPLed 
alternative) originally made for Openoffice.org. It understands and knows the 
complicated inflection rules of Finnish as well as compound words and 
hyphenation.

Well, true. :) I was wrong, I didn't know it uses myspell.

Possibility to use ispell instead of myspell. ;) Another solution would be to 
implement a myspell alternative which can take advantage of Soikko (or 
free "Voikko").

Yes, sure these plugins in general have their limitations when compared to 
integrated features. 

Sorry for my bad English.
