The spellchecker should check through your address book when it finds an unknown
word, to make sure that it isn't someone's name. Maybe it should prompt you as
well, saying "is this someone's name?".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose an new message
2. Include someone's name in the message
3. Spellcheck the message

Actual Results:  
The spellchecker didn't recognize the person's name.

Expected Results:  
The spellchecker should've looked in my address book, and recognized the
person's name.
