Comment:

 It is indeed a [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/spellcheck#security_and_privacy_concerns
 recommendation from MDN] for elements that can contain sensible
 information, like password fields.

 Self-assigning to test the patch, make sure it covers each occurrence, and
 hopefully `commit`.
