Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

Since the move to Visual Editor view mode, the Content Translation source can be spell-checked. This is useless, because the text is not actually editable.

Furthermore, since the language is by definition different, the browser may mark all the words as wrong. Here I am translating from English to French, and the browser tries to spell-check English text as if it was French:

Spell checking in the VE view mode should be prevented.
