Yes, FvdP suggested that in Wikipedia talk:Spellchecking project
spelling errors detection should be done automatically if possible. That is, a list of common misspellings should be periodically searched for in the articles, by an automatic "daemon", and the results be published for humans to correct (I'm wary of automatic correction).

How aboutYet Another Special Page (maybe part of the Maintenance Page)? It could scan through wikipedia searching for common typos defined in a special "article" (wikipedia:typos?).
