Thank you all for the feedback,
Indeed the summary was a bit misleading, I forgot to change it after I
listed the packages. I fixed it now.
I also added that maintainers should decide which spellchecker they prefer
and migrate to that one (hunspell is not mandatory).

Hunspell does not have a functionally-equivalent C++ API. It has a C++ API
of its own, but it's targeted at applications that come with their own
language dictionaries. Its C++ API is, basically, a lookup function against
a dictionary file that the application also supplies, it does not have a
C++ API that offers a convenient way for applications to run a spell check
against the system's default dictionary. The way for an application to do
it is to have it run hunspell itself separately, and talk to it via pipes.
Hopefully, it's easy for the application to do that without leaking other
file descriptors.
I found the hunspell C++ API usable. See

for
an example.
