Steps to reproduce:
1. Load data:text/html,<p>Firefox rulez!</p>
2. Cmd+Shift+I to inspect the page with DOM Inspector.
3. Select the text node.

Result: "rulez" is given a red underline.

This is annoying when I select the text node inside a script element, because it underlines most of the script (which makes it hard to read and slows down DOM Inspector).

I think this should be fixed by defaulting spell-checking to off for chrome.  If that's wrong, perhaps DOM Inspector should opt out.

I think this could be fixed once bug 339127 gets fixed. You could then disable spellchecking on text controls by adding spellcheck="false" or something like that.

Spellchecking now defaults off for chrome, and the UI to enable it has been removed.
