Hi James, Thanks for the response, will open a JIRA for this.
Had one follow-up question - how does the Distributed SpellCheckComponent handle this? I tried looking at the code but it's not obvious to me how it is able to differentiate between these 2 cases. I see that it only considers a term to be wrongly spelt if all shards return a suggestion for it but isn't it possible that a suggestion is not returned because nothing close enough could be found in some shard? Or is the response from shards different than the final spellcheck response we get from Solr in some way?
