Maybe option + F2 is what you're looking for.
Option-F2 just makes a "not found" noise when I use it.
A not found noise? It should open the context menu which is also available by control-clicking or right-clicking the word.
If you are on a laptop, you may need to use fn-option-F2.
Incidentally, I found out that TextMate has "showGuessPanel:" bound to "command and :"
This key binding should be pretty standard.
so you can use that instead of my keybinding when trying the test cases... it still seemingly randomly works or doesn't! Is it working for other people? Please try a few times.
I have it just open the panel. I just tested a Cocoa field, and it seems that it both opens the panel, and jumps to the first (or next) misspelled word (what is also normally achieved using ⌘;)
If you open the panel after having used ⌘; it will be pre-populated with suggestions for the misspelled word -- that might be what makes you view it as random.
It might be good to make it consistent with cocoa fields, though IMO ⌥F2 is an easier alternative -- having a key to replace with best guess, without bringing up any UI, is planned.
