I have no problem with DWYM software, excpet that it doesn't exist. I have a 
real problem with software writers who try, ineptly, to second guess the user. 
I've seen spell mischeckers come up with much worse alternatives than those in 
the classic poem, wich actuall preceeds "smart phones"..

I prefer a failure so I can choose an alternative.
