Tried it, it doesn't work, WRitely's contextual menu totaly overrides
Caminos. I tried the same trick in Firefox 2 release candidate 3 and
changing the contesxtual dom.even.contextmenu changes the behavioour
to display first, Firefox's default context menu then after a single
mouse click the writely context menu. Of course native OS X
spellchecking is not abailable in Firefox 2.

While we're on the subject of Google Web Applications, all the google
spread sheets display as totally blackened masses. I can read nothing.

Cheers
David
