The built-in spell checker cannot be disabled. This causes unwanted visual noise (red underlines).
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a setting to disable the spell checker entirely or per input field.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Live with it. 😆 But some people don't use / don't like spell checkers. I am one of them.
