The spell checker *completely* lives in the parent process and is completely unaffected by sandboxing. But that's actually a problem. My understanding is that WebExtensions won't be allowed to load code in the parent process. Bill, Kris, is that correct? If yes, we should work with the maintainers of the Finnish and Greenlandic dictionaries on adding custom support for loading their code...
