After I typed "ULON64" today, I had a thought. You know which symbols are mis-spelled, and you know the set of valid symbols, and you have a spelling-correction algorithm. So why can't we right-click on the mis-spelled symbols and get suggested corrections? Would it work?
Good idea, but I hope the spelling-correction algorithm is improved. It often doesn't offer useful suggestions on real words in comments. Actually it might have a better chance with code than with natural language since the number of symbols to choose from is much smaller than the number of words in the regular dictonary. And you know when you are in code and when you are in comments. This idea sounds better and better.

Well, if you forget the #include, you're in no worse a position than you are at the moment. You just don't get offered the correct symbol, and you have to type it yourself.
