Well, that seems to be true. I have had a look at enchant.h and in fact it 
does not seem to have that functionality. However it might be possible to add 
it.

Sounds like a good idea. Though that in a way would mean to duplicate the 
efforts of enchant just to avoid solving the GLIB-problem.

In the 3_4_Branch test_dialog will not be compiled. Is there any trick that I 
missed? 

Concerning features from HEAD: That will take some time for me to try that, as 
that means rebuilding KDE with a current HEAD.

Kind regards,
