I think you failed to understand what Gsimenas has tried to tell you. Both spelling variants are allowed, and choosing one variant for certain words only is utter nonsense. You'd need to keep a list which words are used in their british or english variant.

For a non-native speaker like myself the current system is the best outcome, because most of the time I don't know if I use the british or american version of a word and honestly, I don't care. I write it down and that's it, no need to double-check. I don't know how awkward it is to read in case someone is a native british or american speaker, but it can't be that bad?
