Feature
One of the advantages of Calibre's Spell Check dialog compared to Sigil's is having a Language column along with the list of individual words (based on the EPUB's overall language + HTML lang + xml:lang).
Sigil: Attachment 148897
Calibre: Attachment 148898
Basic Sample Code
or attached EPUB.
Why It Is Important
Working with multi-language books, words may be correct in one language but wrong in another + quite often there are overlapping words ("No" in Spanish =/= "No" in English). Currently in Sigil, they appear in the list mashed together.
Helpful Side Functionality
It would be nice to be being able to double click on a word in a language and only jump to the position of the word in that specific language.
I submitted a Calibre Bug Report + details in this thread:

Side Note
Having Language in the Spell Check dialog was just one of those things that I previously thought was a teeny advantage in Calibre's favor, until I worked on a large book with thoroughly marked lang attributes.
I suspect this case is relatively rare, but Calibre's Spell Check was very beneficial compared to my preferred tool (Sigil). :)
