Okay I looked into this. There is no shortcut direct to that button.
That said, that whole SpellcheckEditor dialog is meant to be traversed completely from your keyboard using the Tab key and the Shit-Tab key to rapidly change focus to whatever you want.
For example, I hit the down arrow and focus goes immediately to the Word list then hit Tab 3 times and Focus in now on the Change Selected Word To button and one more Tab will go to the text field in case I want to change the work to use as replacement and Shift Tab will bring me back to that button.
This way to change focus works through many dialogs all throughout Sigil and in many other programs.
Your fingers never have to leave the keyboard.
This Tab and Shift Tab to move focus around works by default on Windows and Linux.
On MacOS
You actually have to enable it in MacOS system settings as follows *before* launching Sigil (or any other program that uses Tab in that way)
- open "System Settings" and select "Keyboard"
- make sure "Keyboard navigation" is enabled.
I enabled this on my Macs years ago and never looked back. Very useful for Qt based programs.
So I do not think yet another shortcut is really needed for those who are heavy users of the keyboard in this dialog. Just try using the Tab and Shift Tab to move around and do almost everything in that dialog.
