           Summary: [Meta] WebKit should allow storing guessed spellings
                    inside the document markers
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML Editing
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: morrita at google.com

        Depends on: 56085


On Chromium, spellchecking can be done by separate process, 
and the delay due to the IPC is not negligible.
For hiding the delay impact, we are going to 

 * batch spellchecking and word suggestion into the same call,
 * store the suggested words inside the markers and
 * retrieve these words when context menu is requested.

For doing this, we need several changes:

 * Need to extend marker to store suggestions
 * Need to extend EditorClient for passing suggestions.
 * Adding API to retrieve markers under selection. (which was removed when the selection arrived.)

Concrete changes are going to be filed under this meta bug.
Note that these changes should not affect the current Mac WebKit behavior. 
The intention here is to make an optional path which is suitable for the IPC based model.
