    I agree with you. Abiword can become the #1 word
    processor for language related areas, due to its
    openness. But in order to fulfill this it need some
    little details. One of then is a "Language preference
    menu" to perform some operations that nowadays can be
    done modifying the abiword.profile file.

    I have just opened a enhancement bug, Bug 3233, to ask
    developers to implement it. I have thought in a very
    simple menu, but perhaps it can be done more
    comprehessive.

    The bug

    and previous messages asking for something like this:
