Option to disable spell checking
Currently, spell checking is always enabled and cannot be disabled.
To some users, the red underlining is visually distracting. Also, the spell checker is currently unable to detect on-the-fly, in-sentence language switching, which is sometimes used in mixed-language teams or when discussing mixed-language subjects (like programming).
Therefore, I'd like to suggest adding an option to permanently disable spell checking - either in the configuration, or, in the input bar's context menu, where the spell check language is usually selected.
In the input bar it could look like this:

Hell yeah please - do this. Absolutely annoying to have each word underlined.

Yes, a great idea! It's very disturbing for me, using Swedish.

Heartily agree. I can do my own spell-checking. Getting dumb interjection of word-endings is maddening. In many cases an extra space within a word is much better than having the prose turned into balderdash.

Would love this feature, especially since language we use in our projects isn't even supported (and liberal use of jargon and anglisms probably wouldn't help spell check either)

Yes, please... Rather distracting and having the option to switch it off should please everyone.
