"it seems to me that it could at least search for a few common
articles and prepositions, add a space after the one that qualifies,
and thereby create one of the alternatives offered to you:"
Ventura's spell-checker does exactly that. It's one of the things that
makes me forgive some of the other stuff I hate, like Home and End
(beginning and end of document, not line).
