It's highly doubtful that GtkSpell will ever be integrated into GTK,
because that would add a dependency on aspell/enchant into an
already-large list of dependencies.

However, there has been talk about integrating it into GNOME.

As for the license:  I think I hold the most of the copyrights, and I
don't particularly care.  If Nathan wants to switch it to LGPL he has my
permission.
