Maybe someone suggested it in the past.  It just happened that I wanted to 
procrastinate, and levenshtein.c in my personal fork came before my eyes.  
This was the next best thing I could think of doing with it.

In the course I realized that my extension to take swaps into account was 
already known as the Damerau-Levenshtein distance, so I even learnt 
something in the process ;-)
