Dictionary switcher - buggy / partially functional

caa:addon/dictionary-switcher

Does the automatic function in this extension work for anyone?

Also, a question, does Pale Moon itself keep selected language per-site anywhere and where? Because my first impression is that it does. Or maybe it's a session thing? Somewhere in sessionstore.js? But, one thing is for sure, it's easy to have the selected dictionary as shown not actually being the one selected.

Edit: OK, maybe there's just one spellchecker.dictionary pref...it's like it started working better after resetting it...

OK, despite the site specific settings, still have to manually switch languages often. My use case, have a site where I want Slovenian most of the time or rather about good 3/4 of time. But sometimes I need English. So I manually switch to English through context menu. But then when I switch to another tab of the same site, I want it to go back to Slovenian as extension is set, which doesn't happen.
