One think I miss from konqueror is the inline spell checker - I do a lot of 
posting on various forums and rely on it to catch my typos ...

Now I understand an inline spell checker would have to be an integral part of 
webkit and that's something rekonq can't add to it, w'll just have to wait for 
the webkit team to implment it directly or via plugins etc, which is a while 
off.

In the mean time I'm wondering if it would be acceptable to implement it in 
rekonq via a right click/action menu for edit fields that summoned a text spell 
check edit dialog for the edit field contents. Its a bit clumsy, but better 
than nothing.

I'd be happy to implement this myself, but I'd like to check it would be an 
acceptable addition before starting.
