System-wide spell checker on OS X

I'd like ArchiCAD to have the access to OS X's spell checking dictionary - that way we can use any kind of dictionary that's available. In my case, I could use opensource CocoAspell which works with any Unicode application out there (Nisus Writer Express, Mellel etc) so we don't have to have a special spell checking dictionary for ArchiCAD.

This is the easiest implementation of spellchecking features on OS X and I believe some similar thing can be done on the Windows side, too.

i'm voting essential for the broader principle at stake here: there are a good deal of efficiencies to be gained through using system-wide resources such as this, (of which spellchecking is a drop in the ocean). sure it means that graphisoft have to really think about supporting two platforms rather than just knock the mac version out with the minimum of effort - as it appears they do.
