Re: [editing] spell checking should be able to span multiple Typing Nodes (#50)

> I prefer, however, editors insert a text node with a space or LF to avoid ambiguous coding from spell checking to double-click selection to all other cases than to add an API just for spell checking.

I agree with this. The "MexicoMaus" problem can easily be solved by putting a zero-width whitespace (for example) between the two words. Since editor devs control the DOM in ce=typing it should not be a problem to ensure there is always a text node or a span with an appropriate character that ensures proper word separation in cases like these.
