After a little more study I found evidence that both spellings can be
acceptable [1]. As a non-native speaker I can't judge whether this is
true or not and which spelling is preferable. I believe we should
unify the spelling though. The reason why I initially thought
"implementOr" is an incorrect spelling is because most spell-checking
tools I personally use indicated so.
