Interesting: maybe. Worth it: no. If your builders can't spell, what the hell are they doing writing areas? I realize that, that is hardly non-native English speaking person friendly; but on most MUDs, I see a lot of builders just sitting around, not doing anything. It seems to me that with 3 or 4 builders just sitting around doing nothing until they think of an area, they can bother themselves helping correct spelling/grammar/typographical errors in other areas. And, for the creative builder that just doesn't have a grasp on spelling, a real dictionary is probably infinitely more helpful.
