Description

i often write messages in different languages. (german and english)
it would be great if the spell checker could somehow find out the language of the page and switch the spell checker to the correct one.

i don't know if this is technically possible (or easy) but maybe even something that simple as having a list with
tld == de || at -> german spell checker as default (if installed)
would do it for most sites. (obviously it wont work for generic tlds like com/net/org/...)

Reproducible: Always
