`<textarea>` in webviews don't support spellcheck #214367

Open evangrayk opened 5 months ago

evangrayk commented 5 months ago

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: No (N/A, applies to webview extension API so requires an extension)

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Have an extension with a webview with a <textarea> with spellcheck="true". For example, add <textarea spellcheck="true"></textarea> to the Cat Coding webview sample
  2. type some misspelled text into the textarea
  3. No red squiggles appear to correct typos

This bug prevents our Sapling extension's commit message editor from providing spell checking.
