I think the 'problem' is that F8 also selects the current XHTML start/end tags and not just the misspelt word.
Is there a way of stopping that? If not could F8 be made to work as F4 does in Sigil?
FWIW - I'd like to have an editing view where all the XHTML tags are hidden so that I can focus on content - not a wysiwyg view, a plain text draft view, i.e a Joe Friday view

I may be misunderstanding you BR but if I go from error to error with the F8 key I still get the context menu and spelling suggestions with a right click of the mouse, and it ignores spelling in the HTML.
There may be a keyboard shortcut to the context menu which is what you are referring to and which goes astray as you describe, but that is outside my experience (except for the few widely used exceptions, cut/copy/pastes, F5, F3, etc. I do the mouse bit).
Apologies if I have misunderstood.
I would find hiding the HTML markup during searches to be very helpful (one can use the Preview to search in but means extra effort reverting to the CV when a correction is to be made; in saying that I am not promoting editing in the preview
).
