Kovid also added a 'smart' that tests if a hyphen-ated misspelt word can be corrected by removing the hyphen, and if so to bump that word to the top of the correction list. I don't think there's anything you need to do have that.

I found with those two enhancements my 'beef' with hyphens were by and large overcome.

OK, I've tried what you suggested, and while it works, it's horribly, horribly slow. Hardly any better than simply reading through and editing the text.

The main issue is that you have to manually select the replacement for every unique occurrence.
