+sorry but I don't agree with you here.
+e.g. in coming days, we will fix firefox (and other mozilla apps) to use 
+hunspell-dictionaries; we will update the link to
+/usr/lib64/firefox-9.0.1/dictionaries -> /usr/share/hunspell
+and change the requires to hunspell-dictionary.
+
+but hunspell-dictionaries "old generation" (mga1) provide 
+hunspell-dictionary, and install dictionaries only in /usr/share/myspell.
+how do you plan to handle that the fixed firefox will absolutly need 
+hunspell-dictionaries "new generation", and can't work with 
+hunspell-dictionaries "old generation" ?
