Sigil could include a single hunspell french dictionary for Windows and MacOS users since it is LGPL'd.
Is the classic one the one we should include?

As far as I can remember, I've been using the Grammalecte Hunspell French dictionary both with Sigil and the Calibre editor.
Grammalecte tools are open source and have been perfected over the years -and still are- by an extended community of enthusiast users. Count me among them.
Its dictionary has been extensively tested. We are currently at version 7.
Its grammar checking tool has been already made available for Sigil users thanks to a Doitsu plugin which is automatically updated at each new version of the tool.
As you can see on the screenshot below, following the recommendation of his author, I use by default the "classic" version of this dictionary but keeps loading the other ones, if need be.
Not every French speaking user is aware of it. I think it would be useful if Sigil could also recommend or even better select this Grammalecte dictionary by default. You'll find the precise page to download the latest version here:
