I think that I have understood now. KSpell knows this and calls ispell without 
-T if the first call has failed.

Now the question is if we should not define "latin1" when selecting 
ISO-8859-15 or many user will fall in the trap. (For example, a German user 
will probably select it and then wonder why the umlauts do not work.)
