Faster Shortcut to Change Spelling Language?

Hi,

I write in French & English and often switch from one to another (while typing in Mail, Pages, Stickies, etc...)

I know " +Command :+ " opens the Spelling/Grammar Menu that lets me switch languages,

But I was wondering if it was possible to set up one simple shortcut, that would enable me to directly change the spelling language (from French to English and vice-versa), without having to go through the Spelling/Grammar Menu each time.

For example, you can easily set a shortcut to change the input language of the keyboard, but I haven't figured out how to do the same for the spelling language.

Thank you very much for any tips, ideas or advice you may have,


JES

I second this request.
Writing in as much as three different languages It is really annoying to go all the way into the grammar and spelling menu to change the language. On that of that you have to click every word in the message to get correct as you type to catch up if you change the setting after you have started typing.

A pull down in the menu bar to switch the language would be very very useful.
Something for Snow Leopard?

Kind regards,
