That is not true for as long as I can remember: nowadays right-clicking on a misspelled word pops up a menu of suggested replacements. How many years ago was that ``last time you tried flyspell''? > (2) its vocabulary is extremely small. Flyspell doesn't have a vocabulary of its own, it invokes either Ispell or Aspell behind the scenes. So it's up to you what speller and which dictionaries to install. Latest versions of both Ispell and Aspell are quite good, actually.
