In almost all conditions (on my 13 inch netbook and with my young
eyes). You need to make a decent effort to spot the misspelled words
in a document. Perhaps this is because of the yellowish background; in
Opera the same dotted line is used, but since the background is white
it's much easier to spot the misspelled words. I just tried to change
the background to white, but spotting the dotted lines is still not
immediate.

I would suspect that a wavy line might be more desirable (as in MS
Word, gtkspell, OOo, etc.), and if I remember this was the original
implementation (although then the wavy line was too big :) ).
