[Bug 651586] Re: Mozilla Thunderbird and Firefox spellcheck has too many languages

[Mattia Rizzolo]

We just had another package that likes and wants more symlinks, and I'm
going to approve that and add more symlinks.  I don't think removing
them is the way to go atm, rather firefox and thunderbird could do
something to deduplicate them (but it needs to be clever, as not
necessarily all en_* (or whatever) are the same).

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.
