You'd think the built-in dictionary used for spell-checking in firefox would contain the word firefox!

Well, Band-aid is a brand, band-aid is a concept.

Since the spell-checker isn't an add-on, I don't know how to provide feedback to make it better.

And you don't think that Firefox is a licensed, trademarked brand name?

BTW, Mozilla didn't create the en-US dictionary, it's maintained by a different organization.

I guess you're right, I should write Firefox, not firefox.

I like the spell-checker in thunderbird better because you can add a word to your personal copy of the dictionary with one click.
