After having been so rudely interrupted, I would now like to return to the
topic, in order to have this fixed hopefully in OOo 2.3.

1. The option in question is and - in OOo - has always been dead. This alone
would already be reason enough to remove it from the UI. It confuses users
because it suggests a functionality that does not exist and - in OOo - never
existed.

2. Even if issue 13376 was implemented, the corresponding setting should not be
done application-wide: the language - and hence the spelling - is a property of
the paragraph or character style. Thus, even if issue 13376 was implemented, the
option for the "old spelling" would need to be a part of the list of languages
in the styles dialog, whereas the option in Tools ... (in question here) would
need to be removed completely.

I remind those interested in politics that removing this option does not have
any implicit or explicit meaning on support for spell-checking whatsoever. The
option in question here does not work, because currently only one spelling per
language is supported. The requirements for supporting more spellings per
language, and hence also for support for the pre-1996 German orthography, are
discussed in issue 13376. This issue here is only about cleaning up a broken,
because non-working and non-systematic, GUI.
