AFAICT, people generally agree that this would probably be useful,
but there's not consensus on how far the code should be willing to
"reach" for a match, nor on what to do when there are multiple
roughly-equally-plausible candidates.
Although printing all candidates seems to be what's preferred by
existing systems with similar facilities, I can see the point that
constructing the message in a translatable fashion might be difficult.
So personally I'd be willing to abandon insistence on that. I still
think though that printing candidates with very large distances
would be unhelpful.
