Hi jonathon,

Does this mean that if a person is given a dictionary for, say, Ferangi,
as an extension, upon installing it, they won't need to make any other
changes, to be able to select Ferangi as the document language?

That's the purpose..
It should be selectable as paragraph and character attribution in
a document for spell-checking purposes.

Adding arbitrary dictionary languages (as long as they strictly follow
the BCP 47 language tag specification) works since quite a while (2014?)
already. New(er) in the mentioned mechanism is the ability to add
a language also to the CTL or CJK sections where previously it was only
possible to add to the (misnamed) "Western" section, and give the
language list entries a proper UI name instead of showing just the
language tag.

Note however that such extension language can't be set as default
language for all documents under Tools -> Options -> Languages.


Thanks.
I wasn't aware that that functionality was present.

I'll play with over the next month or so, then write about in my
long-neglected blog.
