In 1.3.4 there is a charstyle property "language()" which should be used for
spellchecking, hyphenation and shortwords.

Squiggly lines will have to wait for 1.3.6, since that requires changes to
how
the text is stored and displayed.

Another possibility would be to integrate spellchecking with the Preflight
Verifier.
