 @Kumara - the more I think about this the harder it is to implement. In
 particular the possessive stuff:
 
 For instance, what if someone adds a word that is not a noun, so there is no
 possessive element, then they want to write that word in plural but
 accidentally type 's instead of just an s - spell check doesn't show this
 as wrong despite it clearly being wrong.

Thanks for thinking about this. On the scenario you raised, I would count it as
a grammar problem, rather than a spelling one. I think the occurrence would be
rare. Besides, we can leave this to LanguageTool, which I'm playing a minor
role in.

If we leave this as it is, users who add words not in the dictionary (and they
are often nouns) would have to add many more words just because of the
apostrophe s.

For comparison sake, Eudora (the old email client which I'm *still* using) has
an amazingly well thought-out spell-checker. It does what I suggested, and to
my knowledge no one has ever complained about it.

Can you suggest how we might handle situations like this? I think it could lead
to some relatively bad problems with spell check. Maybe something that needs to
be discussed with UX team as well.

Sounds like a valid enhancement request...despite myself not wanting such a
smart system ;) Moving to NEW.
