Bug Description

When I write a comment about something I changed in the source code it would be nice if the spell checker would not mark these words as spelling mistakes. For example, if I change a method called setVisible and I write a comment "Fix bug in setVisible" I would not expect that setVisible would be shown as a spelling mistake.

The spell checker could either look in the diffs and see if setVisible was changed or, alternatively (and perhaps both easier and better), it could understand camel case and "_"s in words and treat it like 2 words "set" and "visible".

May be it will be nice to have such super-smart spell-checker, but IMO it's too much for spell-checker. This will require too much effort for a little benefit.

One idea - not necessarily good - would be to try and deduce variable names - eg, anything with a capital letter anywhere but the first character or an underscore could be ignored...
