Still an issue in 2023...

Ignored words should be scoped to the lifetime of the document.

Scoping them to app open/close means the user has to repeat previous decisions,
costing more and more time as the document grows in length, and making the app
appear to be faulty.

Scoping to app/opn close would not be tolerated for your typed input.  The
document would simply open empty of all previous text and formatting last time
it was opened.  It would appear as if it had not saved it at all.

Since opening and closing a lngthy document will occur many, many times in the
life of a reasonably long document, possibly with multiple contributors, there
is a strong case for bringing author ignored words into the document lifetime
scope by storing those decision in file.

It is something I would certainly appreciate.  Re-ignoring words is an
unnecessary waste of my time, often meaning I simply trun spelling off.  

As for options, "Spell all", "Spell excluding ignored words", "View ignored". 
It can be buried in options for my money - why would the ignore list have
altered?  Even on open: "This document has ignored words.  Review them?  Always
show this message on open?"  I think not.
