Chromium, like many other Debian programs, uses hunspell for spelling. However, unlike most other apps that use hunspell directly or indirectly (e.g. Firefox, Pidgin, LibreOffice), Chromium uses a custom personal word list format, and hence can’t share a per-user word list. (The other programs mentioned can simply have their user wordlist file symlinked to a single file, e.g. ~/.hunspell_en_GB.) Would it be possible to patch Chromium to integrate it better with Debian in this respect?
