This has been requested before, so there's definitely a desire for it: 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=720335.  Probably the best 
thing to do is to attach this patch to that bug, to make it harder for 
us to forget it.

A quick glance over the patch is encouraging -- I had thought this 
would be a lot more work.  How does WebKit handle multiple languages?  
Is there an option for you to choose which to use, or does it just mark 
as misspelled words that appear in none of your languages?
