Yeah, that'd be my preferred solution, i.e.

It doesn't massively appeal to me, given an example of LibreOffice
auto-spellchecking a 1000 page document because you'd end up basically
sending the entire document over the wire word by word.

And the spellchecking happens paragraph by paragraph in the idle-time
callback, checking after each paragraph if there's been any user events
in order to postpone the rest of spellchecking until later, so that
section of code has to be fast.
