Once I am back to continue the developing process of FuzzyOcr, I might add an option to pass the text back to SA. Combined with a new, more precise OCR engine like tesseract, this will probably work very well. Unfortunately, there is currently a lot of picture spam being sent around which won't be caught at all by FuzzyOcr because they use new obfuscation technics with animated gifs etc and I don't have the time atm to adjust the plugin to these...
