Rapidly move to next spelling error

I just purchased the spelling & grammar add-on.

I see the "go to next error" in the proofreading menu that pops up when you click on the gear (see attached).

Is there not a faster way to move to the next spelling error? Navigating through several drop-down menus to advance to each spelling error isn't really practical.

Thanks!

    I actually had developed that feature but not finished it, and forgot
    that the menu item was still visible. I'll add a shortcut for it in the
    next update.

    In the meantime, there's a trick you can use to add your own. Open
    System Preferences -> Keyboard -> App Shortcuts, and add one with the
    plus sign. Choose Marked 2 from the dropdown, type (with exact
    capitalization) "Go to Next Error" and then choose a keyboard shortcut
    for it. It will then work in Marked with your chosen shortcut. Here's an
    example : http://ckyp.us/19Ph4
