<pre>This is a fairly minimal problem, because if the user doesn't like having words
marked as misspelled because of a comment in the middle, they can simply not
add mid-word comments.
It is a bit of a catch-22. It would take a LOT of effort to avoid deleting the
comment when a misspelled word is fixed (<a href="show_bug.cgi?id=65535#c25">comment 25</a>), so it would seem the best
and safest approach would just be to ignore any such words. (But perhaps
already solved for similar situations like track-change-deleted-stuff and
hidden-text?)
On the other hand, if the word truly is misspelled, then the user is going to
be upset that it isn't red-squigglied.
Perhaps the best approach would be:
-strip the comment marker out of the word before submitting to spell checker
-offer zero replacement choices (to avoid deleting the comment) forcing the
user to fix manually.
