I want to add/change a word to/in the default nl-dictionary

My surname is Spithost and it sometimes happens that I spell SPithost (when not lifting the shift-bar fast enough...). Then Firefox suggests Spithorst as the correct word.

Apparently Spithorst IS in the default nl.dict as a PN (Personal Name I guess) but my surname isn't.

I'd like to get my surname added as well so that will be suggested as a correction-word (or get Spithorst removed, so that I can add it to the personal dictonary which is apparently used AFTER the nl.dict).

But I have no idea who maintains this dictionary....

I invited spithost to a screen sharing session, and I'll give an update here once we are done.
