I forgot to add one thing here, ispell.el currently allows only 
iso-8859-1, iso-8859-2, and koi8-r as values in the ispell.el emacs 
entries, otherwise will fail. So it is not possible to use the 
"Coding-System" field unless we patch ispell.el. This is another reason 
why I prefer the other system.
