Tim Pope tried to implement interesting plugin for Vim. [1] It basically replaces frequently mistyped words with correct ones. I wouldn't support this method, but it is interesting how frequently I type some words wrong ('fucntion', for example). Instead, you should definitely try proper fingering.

As a pro piano, saxophone and guitar player, I'm prepping a rather lengthy blog post about proper fingering when typing, and the inadequacy of standard keyboard layouts, in particular, wrong placement of modifier keys as pivot points.

Your mentioning of piano made me think of a auto-correct plug-in for an electronic piano. In the spirit of sl and gti, it would have to play a Rickroll first.
