An improve over Sigil's Spell check thread

The hints-suggestions were not always most helpful or complete (context wise):

Broken (up) words like: con fined or con-fined

It would be of more help if the hints tried to make a valid word by combining the word from the left or right . It is not unusual for either of those to be a valid word on their own
Mangled word: (so bad, no reasonable suggestion possible)
Just append the original to the end of the suggestion list so that it can be edited in the replace with box
Case cleaning: words with garbage case
Standard change case options
Rogue OCR (punctuation) characters:
slash instead of I
m instead of r n
instead of apostrophe character

Have a session sticky setting for default quoting to flag wrong character detected: eg case curly quote open, straight close

Kovid, this is just a blue sky list. We will use what we get
