[Building Sakai] CKEditor & Spelling correction.

Then I'm not sure this adds much over the "Speller Pages" option for CKEditor, or the fairly cheap current option from WebSpellChecker.net ($250/year). Our goal would be SCAYT which is what I think most users will be expecting (and prefer).

I wasn't sure how to read the CKEditor page description of their "Native Spell Checker" (http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/guide/dev_spellcheck), but might that just defer spelling to the browser, which I think most do a good job on already?

The google spell checker does a batch check of the entire document.

I like the Moodle description: "should be familiar to anyone who uses a word processor".

The google one doesn't require a third party install or any costs.
