Re: [platform-dev] Better spellings support for code editors

We had plans to move the spelling engine from JDT to platform.text to
make it re-usable for CDT but did make the effort to move it. Would be
great to move it and / or to enhance it.

I would be happy to get rid of the CDT specific code if possible, especially as no one has been keeping it up to date.
