Suppose a grammar checker wanted to check that certain terms were 
used consistently throughout a document. For example, an organisation 
might not care whether the spelling 'email' or 'e-mail' is used, as 
long as only one version is used throughout. In this case, a grammar 
checker could take note of the first occurrence it sees, and then 
check that the later ones are the same, returning an error if they 
don't match.

This would only be possible if the grammar checker could store this 
information against a particular document.
