--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
(In reply to Nick Levinson from comment #5)
I think this can be done by adding a Boolean (true/false) field to every
entry in every dictionary. The default entry would be false (as in 'false
spelling'). But if a user could supply a file of rare-but-correct spellings
or could edit a single entry, the status of true would mean 'true spelling
albeit rare'.
That leaves how the UI should inform users of likely-misapplied rare
spellings.
An extension would seem appropriate for the UI once the rarities are
recognizable but probably not to the necessary hooks in LibreOffice,
especially the additional field. Since the hooks would need something in LO
itself, I'm restoring this report's status.
Way out of scope for the way our bundled dictionaries/thesaurus are produced
and maintained. Have a look at the Hunspell, and Lightproof projects and
restrictions on how word lists can be altered.
The "User-defined dictionaries" model Heiko described provides framework for
customized (individually or by some collaborative work group) lexical aids
without imposing a non-maintainable data structure of alternates.
Presently the LanguageTool.org project provided extension supports rules based
checking--one can write their own for their custom dictionary needs.
If the Grammarly project ever spins up an extension for AOO/LO that would be a
treat for using its "context-optimized word choice" but again these are
extensions and not something applicable to LibreOffice core, and hooks
extension authors need for GUI interface are provided in the SDK.
