Perhaps not quite what you were looking for, but emacs' dabbrev-expand
works well for avoiding mistyped Python names (not to mention typing
less).  It searches through all buffers for a "word" matching the
first few characters you typed.

So, to type the first "dabbrev-expand" in this sentence, I just typed
'da', then hit F4 (which I have bound to dabbrev-expand).  If there
are multiple matches, you can carry on hitting F4 until the expansion
you want is found, or type a few more characters and try again.  The
capitalization behaviour is controlled by the variable
dabbrev-case-replace.

I think other editors can do something similar, but it works well with
the emacs way of working (one emacs process open, lots of files loaded
into buffers in that process).
