Comment(by olly):

 Oh, hmm - except that the search for the best spelling on the remote
 server should ideally use the spelling frequencies from the combined
 database.  So this would only give the same answers if there's a single
 sub-database which is remote - for the more general case it won't, though
 the answers should be reasonable still.  If you only care about that case,
 supporting only that would be an improvement over not supporting remote
 spelling at all!

 I don't immediately see how to solve this issue though.  The approach used
 for matching documents doesn't seem to work here.
