Exactly. Of course only if you don't combine several logocal chanages in one
commit.
Bear in mind that this is not the only thing that will happen to the
svn repo, so "rolling" back the changes can be quite cumbersome.
Why is this thing so difficult? It should be no problem to let Abdel work on
the spell checker stuff exactly as he likes if he promises to finish it
completely, with configure support, preferences and all, and support for
aspell and ispell, either via enchant or directly in LyX, if it turns out
that enchant does not really work with one of these.
If he is willing to do that then I don't see any problem. If the bus thing
happens (which is not very likely after all), then reverting the whole
thing might still need a bit of work, but since we are not rewriting LyX
completely, only changing some interfaces at the moment, this additional
work will not be so much.
At least someone who can think logically!
On the other hand Abdel, if keeping the other spell checkers is really
negligible extra work (I can't judge because I did not look closely at the
code), then I don't see any reason to not do that either.
Year... with the amount of time spent in this whole discussion, I think
the whole stuff would have been finished by now.
Abdel.
