the dictionary.lst file should be more specific about the
spell/thesaurus/hyphenation engines. At the moment you can define

DICT lang REGION dictionarybasename
HYPH lang REGION hyphpatternbasename
THES lang REGION tesaurusbasename

We now have already two spellcheck engines and some people may have reasons to
use  both from time to time. However you can't define in dictionary.lst which
dictionarybasename is for myspell and which is for hunspell. There may also come
up other spellcheck engines which will have the same prolbem or where the
problem might be worse because other spellcheck engines might not be compatible
with the myspell dictionary format.

There might also come up alternative thesaurus engines and alternative
hyphenation engines - they will all have the same problem that dictionary.lst
does not jet make a difference between the dictionary names for different 
engines.

I want to propose to leave "DICT" for myspell dictionaries but to introduce
names like "DICT_HUNSPELL" for hunspell and so on for other spellcheck engines.
Hunspell might itself do a fallback to "DICT" if it doesn't find a
"DICT_HUNSPELL" (because hunspell is backward compatible with myspell and can
use its dictinoaries, too).

The same naming scheme should be used for HYPH and THES entries to make sure
future alternative versions don't clash with existing versions. This will also
make handling of installing dictionaries for DictOOO easier and saver.
