PHP 5.3 deprecated pspell in favor of enchant, which is bundled with PHP by default. It's a wrapper library that supports aspell, hunspell, myspell, and others seamlessly. It would be awesome if the CKEditor module could configure CKEditor to use enchant to determine what spellcheckers are available on the system and allow selection of the appropriate one. The beauty of this is that it wouldn't confuse folks who don't have a particular spellchecker on the system because it just wouldn't display it as an option.

I realize not everyone is running PHP 5.3, not sure what the answer would be in that case. Though PHP.net says they are not supporting PHP 5.2 anymore, so hopefully folks will mostly be upgrading.
