Well, I see the "Use alternative language" field in Preferences->Languages
as a help-item to any spell checker, when the default language names
don't work.

I suggested to move that field into the Document Layout->Languages,
so one can adjust this per document. Of course, no need to set this
for an english document, because the spell checker knows "english",
but I'll have to set it to "nederlands" (or what ever) for my dutch
documents.

This would solve the problem of continuously having to change
the preferences ispell language setting when using several
documents in different languages.
Once stored in the Document Layout, I don't need to worry about
the language settings for the spelling checker.
This has certainly advantages!

If this "Use alternative language" is moved into the Document Layout,
it also needs to be saved in the document, not in the lyxrc file.
