Adding libreoffice and libreoffice-dictionaries as affected packages.
Basically, if I understand it correctly, the symlinks, which cause all
the items in e.g. Firefox and Thunderbird, are there to ensure that the
dictionaries are properly recognized by LibreOffice irrespective of the
language/country combination in the effective system locale. So if it
would be doable to change the LibreOffice behavior in this respect, we
could get rid of many of the items in the spellcheck lists of other
applications.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
Mozilla Thunderbird and Firefox spellcheck has too many languages. It
does not follow the Ubuntu Language Support Standard (gnome-language-
selector).
Language Support (gnome-language-selector) has a feature which allows
you to gray out languages you are not interested in seeing and black
in the languages you would like to see. Mozilla apps should follow
this or should at least offer a workaround allowing a user to disable
certain languages.
