Out of curiosity I just fooled around with spell checking and got the
following really strange results:

Notes:
- Always enabled 'check spelling while I type'
- <de> is a valid German word of your choice, same with <en> for English


enabled languages: de, en

open editor
 type in two words: <de>, <en>
open settings
 disable: de
 pressed 'apply' button
 => <de> gets instantly marked as wrong
 enable: de
 pressed 'apply' button
 => nothing happens
close settings
close editor

open settings
 => de is _not_ enabled
close settings

open editor
 type in two words: <de>, <en>
 => <de> gets instantly marked as wrong
open settings
 enable: de
 pressed 'apply' button
 => <de> gets instantly marked as correct
 disable: de
 pressed 'apply' button
 => nothing happens
close settings
close editor

open settings
 => de still _is_ enabled
close settings


Now, that is weired. :-/  Seems like a one-way setting. Changes are
applied instantly even while the editor is opened. But only for the
first change, all subsequent changes are ignored. Not only by the
editor, but also by the settings.
