Auto Spell Check for posts?

Question

AFAFNo seriously, I am not the best typist, I am terrible at checking through my posts to spot spelling errors, until after I hit POST. Is there anyway an auto spell check could be added here, please?

You can manually spell-check your post by clicking the ABC button:

But it's slow and not a very good spell-checker. The forum software explicitly disables the automatic spell-checker built-in to your browser:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/community-feedback/re-enable-browser-spell-checking/m-p/10695795#M487

Though it's trivial to remove that disabling in the HTML, Adobe and its software vendor have so far refused to make that change.

johnrellisyou said it (well, wrote it):"it's slow and not a very good spell-checker.

Its hard to know why anyone would support browser spellcheck disabling. The way it works too, you cant click within a highlighted word to edit it if none of the suggestions are right - unless you click nearby and move the cursor using arrow keys to get "into" the offending word. More time wasted.
