Turning #2493 into an issue given it was decided to be the wrong approach

Suggesting similar package names based on what is available in the registry would probably work better.

Edit distance with a low cost for case changes would be a good way to do this. Now that we have usage stats we can combine with a "language model" that uses package popularity to decide what's most likely.
