(Whiteboard: [specification][type:feature])

What problem would this feature solve? ====================================== Since SCAYT doesn't support russian language (in text without erros it highlights in red about half of words) it would be nice if users can use browser built-in spellcheck. So, it will solve problem that russian contributors can't use spellchecker now. Who has this problem? ===================== Russian contributors How do you know that the users identified above have this problem? ================================================================== I don't have any data and single experiment that I run is open random page in russian, enable SCAYT spellcheck and count words that are highlighted in red (as a result about half of words (correct words) are in red). How are the users identified above solving this problem now? ============================================================ I think they just don't use any spellchecker Do you have any suggestions for solving the problem? Please explain in detail. ============================================================================== Add option "Use browser built-in spellchecker" to dropdown menu of spellchecker (in editor) Is there anything else we should know? ======================================
