Generally spell checking is a bit more than just determining if a word is in a dictionary, it also suggests corrections.

I get that this class can parse a sentence and work as a thesaurus, but can it actually suggest changes to misspelled words?

You can actually use it asynchronously to detect 'mis-spelled words', but currently, you can't get suggested words for wrongly spelled once. I made some changes to the class and it can now suggest another word for wrongly spelled once (generally how a spell checker works), this time around it uses a nosql database. You won't see this changes though until the class is approved which is probably in a weeks time.
