Right now, ispell.el has the deutsch8 dictionary which uses Latin-1
encoding.  It is not possible to use this to spell-check German text
which is in Latin-9.  I therefore propose an addition to
ispell-dictionary-alist along the following lines:

(add-to-list 'ispell-dictionary-alist
	     '("deutsch8-15"
	       "[a-zA-Z\304\326\334\344\366\337\374]"
	       "[^a-zA-Z\304\326\334\344\366\337\374]"
	       "[']" t
	       ("-C" "-d" "deutsch")
	       "~latin1" iso-8859-15))

(I'm not sure it's a good idea to put "~latin1" there...)

What do you think?
