Spellcheck in book view + selected text spellcheck

Hi all,

I'm helping a non-technical book author use Sigil to do some ebook editing and it seems (from reading a few other posts here) that the ability to do on-the-fly spellchecking in book view is not yet available? He's finding code view pretty difficult to work in, so I was wondering whether anyone knew if this feature will be added at some point.

Also, he's asked whether it's possible to do a partial book spellcheck, so that instead of being presented with every misspelling in the whole book, he could, for example, highlight a few paragraphs and just do a spellcheck on the selected text. As far as I could see, this is not possible.

I understand development is done by volunteers and we're certainly grateful to have Sigil even as it is, but I'd appreciate any info on these so that I can feed some answers back to him.

Thanks!
Peter.
