The on-the-fly spell checking (red squiggley) would also be controllable by preferences to either check in primary language only, or both primary and secondary languages.
This sounds like a fantastic step forward.

So, to summarize:

1. Real-time spellchecking would be upgraded to handle 2 languages.

2. Spellcheck Lists will be upgraded to handle all lang? (I imagine similar to Calibre's with a new Language column added?)

Words not marked for either of the two languages, would be ignored unless told otherwise.
Can you clarify on "ignored unless told otherwise"?

I assume it'll be like Calibre's "Show only misspelled words" checkbox?
  • Off
    • Displays Word/Count/Language/Misspelled columns.
    • Shows all words within book (similar to current Sigil).
  • On
    • Removes "Misspelled" column.
    • Only wrongly spelled + foreign words are shown.

If so, again, I think fantastic step forward.
