Many people use several languages in their computer-related daily activity.
F.e. IT-professionals whose native language is not English constantly use: 1) Native language & 2) English.
Another place of multilingual computer usage is many countries with several state languages.
Currently FF doesn't support selecting several dictionaries for spell checking.
As a result a lot of people who use several languages can't check spelling properly in FF.

Reproducible: Always
