Had a gut feeling that Sigil might not have the issue, that's why I qualified with a "But...". Maybe it's calibre that has the issue - but its spellchecker is multi-lingual Ψ²

The hyphenation dictionaries are installed. And manual says they must be installed for additional standard dictionaries.

To add other standard dictionaries, such as ones found at the OpenOffice Dictionaries site, download, extract, and copy the files, e.g. en_GB.aff, en_GB.dic, hyph_en_GB.dic to the "hunspell_dictionaries" directory location and restart Sigil.

If something were built in as suggested, new users wouldn't be tempted to put the files in the install directories as a couple of my non-Anglo colleagues did. They looked for something in Preferences->Spellcheck Dictionaries. They're - "
RTFM! - what's that?, tl:dr? - absolutely" - millenials
@Doitsu - my enquiry re a utility still stands.
