When I hear "typo", I think "misspelling" and wonder how it differs from the typo correction that clang frontend has. I've usually heard of what your linked review covers as a "thinko" (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/thinko) because you made a logical mistake rather than a misspelling, but that's a pretty awful name for the module. ;-)

Perhaps "mistake-", "oops-", "derp-" or something along those lines (well, maybe not "derp")?
