FTR: C-r indeed was not meant to be used to modify the misspelled
word.  ispell.el has 'r' and 'R' commands for that.  C-r is for
consulting the rest of the text, without modifying it and without
disrupting the spelling session.  An alternative is to type 'X', make
any modifications you want, and then resume spelling with "C-u M-$".
