Comment (by cypherpunks):

 That's not a bug, it a feature! If you receive an email (or reedit a
 draft), Thunderbird 52 uses the `Content-Language` header field to pick
 the right dictionary if installed.

 On my machine it's reproducible, every email I send (except gpg emails)
 have the header field `Content-Language:` with the language option
 depending on the uses dictionary, eg. `en-US`.

    `Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8`
    `Content-Language: en-US`
    `Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit`
