My apologies; I meant to repond to your message and have not yet.
So I will now.
I've made noises in the now-distant past about making spell-checking
customizable after the manner of the new completion system. (See 2407
and 4577 for examples.) We ended up doing approximation in completion
entirely independently of spell-checking.
However, I still think it'd be useful to put a hook in spckword() for
e.g. calling to a user-defined function that could perform whatever
corrections the user likes. This would be preferable to adding yet
another option, I think.
Now, as I type, this arrives from PWS:

} though I'm not really sure how much you gain by examining the keyboard
} layout anyway.
It's used to disambiguate so as to offer only a single correction. You
don't gain much when alternatives could result from missed keys in more
than one direction, which does happen occasionally.
