This is a fix!??  Forgive me if I've misunderstood the problem, but how
about this fix, instead:

1.  Save the Frame document in RTF.
2.  Open the RTF document in MS Word.
3.  Run spell check in Word, jotting down any needed corrections on a
piece of paper with a pen.
4.  Open the Frame document in Frame.
5.  One by one, search for and correct the spelling errors you have
listed on your piece of paper.

That might save the "couple of hours of patching."
