I agree.

The problem here is that we have things connected with spelling in Tools
menu. Also note, that flyspell-mode is not customizable option. It is
normal minor mode which already can be activated via mouse-3 menu on the
mode-line. I think that Tools menu is the right place for this if we want
it in the menu at all.
