[Show Quoted Text - 30 lines][Hide Quoted Text] No, it's been there forever. I can confirm that this does not work for us using either the newest Chrome or the newest Firefox, but I think I know why. Could this be related to us using the 'disableNativeSpellChecker: false' option in imp/lib/Script/Package/Editor.php? We use this option as our customers appreciate being able to see their messages spell-checked as they type, but it seems they would also like to be able to right(or left)-click on a misspelled word to see suggestions. Can both of these features be used together? If not currently, could we request this as a feature? IIRC, you need to hold down the ctrl key when clicking if you are using the browser native spell checking. Ah-ha, this worked! Now to figure out how to inform our customers of this feature. Will a future release of IMP support a newer release of CKEditor, At some point, yes. Though with our limited resources, this will likely require someone helping to sponsor this. and might that newer release of CKEditor simultaneously support live spellchecking and "intuitive" single-click alternatives? Thanks! Doubtful, as I believe this is controlled by CKEditor. Fair enough. Now I'm wondering if I can just turn off all special behavior in the textarea box and just revert back to normal browser behavior? Is there a config option of that?

This already exists. You have to left-click though. This doesn't work immediately for me, at least not with Horde 5.2.12 and IMP 6.2.16 using Chrome. Is this a new feature for a future new release?

We'd like to be able to right-click on misspelled words in the compose window and select from a list of alternative suggestions.
