The first part, for which I've attached the latest diff, contains just the changes for the improved version of Sema::CorrectTypo and does not include the new unit test or any changes to any of the callers of CorrectTypo (all calls are going through the compatibility wrapper, and all unit tests pass). The second part, which I'm still working on (and which is already a third of the combined patch size), already has many of the callers modified to use the new version of CorrectTypo so I'd be fine with getting the first part submitted. Splitting it apart should also make the changes a bit easier to bisect if something breaks down the road.

If you'd like I could fix up one of the CorrectTypo callers and add stripped-down version of missing-namespace-qualifier-typo-corrections.cpp that only tests that one instance.

Sorry, I meant to say that explicitly: I'd like one call site to switch along with the initial patch, so we see some testable change in behavior from the commit. Later patches/commits could add more call sites and tests, as appropriate. Thanks!
