Agreed. We could add flyspell/ispell to `desktop-minor-mode-table' and `desktop-minor-mode-handlers' with appropriate functions to save and restore values like `ispell-local-dictionary'. But I don't understand neither Gerd's comments nor his implementation of this yet. BTW does anyone know why some minor modes like `overwrite-mode' are in `desktop-locals-to-save' and others like `transient-mark-mode' and `visible-mode' are not?
