Research direction
Start by reproducing the missing context-menu option in a WebView2 application and compare it with Microsoft Edge, as described in the issue. Determine whether the WebView2 Runtime exposes an extensibility point for spellcheck actions; done means a misspelled word offers an “Add to dictionary” action comparable to Edge.
