Nope. These names belong in each dictionary.

There are two desired behaviors here. It's not enough to just ensure
that there's no squiggle under the name AbiWord.

We also want to be able to suggest the name AbiWord as a correction for
various misspellings, such as:

  AbeWord
  Abiword
  AbiWorrd
  etc.

Hardwiring the former is, admittedly, a fairly easy hack. Hardwiring the
latter in a reliable way isn't, AFAIK, because it requires you to know too
much about how each spellcheck engine generates suggestions.
