That's great to hear :)

Yes, of course :) From my perspective I'd love give myself more time to 
play with some other linguistic classes rather than spend too much time 
maintaining a spell checker. So having something that is well designed, 
works and is maintained by someone else would be a wonderful solution 
for me. Which is why using Enchant is very appealing, especially now 
that you've mentioned you'd be open to some api suggestions :)
