The problem with ispell recommending wordlist is that it allows apt
to choose a random one, that can have no relation to the language being
used (even a special-purpose one like wgerman-medical).
This would be better handled by various ispell dictionary packages
recommending a wordlist that goes with the dictionary. So iamerican
could recommend wamerican, and irussian could recommend nothing (as there
is no russian wordlist).
The only fix that can be made in tasksel would be to not include i<lang>
in a task unless it can also include w<lang>, and that would be a net
reversion.
