That should rather be a preference option as to which language variant
is to be (forcefully) preferred. Such a preference should be settable on
a dialog listing all available dictionaries just as the default
dictionary to use if not appropriate one is installed (that might also
be spellcheck disabled!)

But that's an enhancement to the browser selecting the spellcheck
language based on @lang attribute of page language header (or meta tag)
when there was no @lang attribute.
