Title:
  Automatically select language for spell check based on user input

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Fix Released
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  As suggested in comments to http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/14655/

  In an edit field, the language used for the spelling checker could be
  selected automatically based on identifying the language used for text
  written so far.  Systems for doing this exist, and have tolerable
  accuracy for a single sentence of input.

  Granted, this should probably be routed upstream.
