The current implementation of the spell checker (as far as I can tell) always finds the nearest match to the incorrectly spelled symbol.

So the following example:

struct S2 {}
struct S10 {}

void main()
{
    S10 a = S();
}


Will emit the error:
spell.d(6): Error: undefined identifier S, did you mean struct S2?


Whereas it would be an improvement in these cases if it were to suggest the lhs type instead.

Regards

Implementing this would be difficult as it requires top-down type inference, whereas the semantic analysis is all done bottom-up.
