827393 - Disable word suggestions/predictions by default

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Keyboard, defect)

Description

[Casey Yee]

Performance on the keyboard significantly improves when word suggestion is disabled.   We should turn off the word suggestion by default because it will offer better keyboard usability.

We would take a patch for this issue, but it's not a V1 blocker.

That sounds interesting. Please do update the spec and user story for this if that's a must change.

Stealing this review.  Its a trivial patch, and as sad as it makes me to disable this, we don't need to wait for Vivien to review this one line.
