You mean ‘for a spell checker’, which I did not write, so blame Apple  
for this! :p

As for performance though, I am most likely going to re-run the spell  
checker only on the line fragments resulting from soft wrap in 2.0,  
which should scale better.

Theoretically this is not ideal, because for example in Danish we  
have borrowed “words” like ‘ris ala mande’ (a dessert) where both  
‘ala’ and ‘mande’ are not danish words, but the 3 words in succession  
should not be marked as misspelled -- I say theoretical, because  
there is no Danish spell checker, and according to Dansk Sprognævn,  
it is risalamande (just one word), but there are many of these examples.
