We do need to be careful here. For cases with FoundDecl != Decl, I think that 
the typo-correction cases look like they probably work, but there are a few 
places where we make semantic decisions based on the mismatch, such as:

In SemaTemplate.cpp below line 512, we have (this is in C++03-specific code):

  } else if (!Found.isSuppressingDiagnostics()) {
    //   - if the name found is a class template, it must refer to the same
    //     entity as the one found in the class of the object expression,
    //     otherwise the program is ill-formed.
    if (!Found.isSingleResult() ||
        getAsTemplateNameDecl(Found.getFoundDecl())->getCanonicalDecl() !=
            OuterTemplate->getCanonicalDecl()) {
      Diag(Found.getNameLoc(),
           diag::ext_nested_name_member_ref_lookup_ambiguous)

and in SemaExpr.cpp near line 2783, we have:

  // If we actually found the member through a using declaration, cast
  // down to the using declaration's type.
  //
  // Pointer equality is fine here because only one declaration of a
  // class ever has member declarations.
  if (FoundDecl->getDeclContext() != Member->getDeclContext()) {
    assert(isa<UsingShadowDecl>(FoundDecl));
    QualType URecordType = Context.getTypeDeclType(
                           cast<CXXRecordDecl>(FoundDecl->getDeclContext()));
