I would that if buffer-A is spelled with italian dict., buffer-B with 
english dict., buffer-C..., then the same should happen when these 
buffers are reloaded (if flyspell is saved).

So which variables should I add to desktop-locals-to-save (a little 
example?)?

In any case, I remains in my opinion: If the logic is to save, by 
default, the flyspell-mode for a buffer, also the dictionary with which 
the buffer is spelled should be saved. If not then also flyspell should 
not, by default!


Cheers,
   Angelo.
