Entry.IsSpellCheckEnabled="False" still shows squiggly line

[mobycorp]

Description

I have an entry field with IsSpellCheckEnabled="False". When text is entered into the field and it fails the spellchecker, it still draws a squiggly line under the text. I am expecting no squiggly line.

This is the xaml used to define the entry control:

<Entry
	x:Name="EmailAddressEntry"
	ClearButtonVisibility="WhileEditing"
	IsSpellCheckEnabled="False"
	Margin="0,2"
	Placeholder="{x:Static strings:AppResources.PlaceholderEnterEmailAddress}"
	Text="{Binding EmailAddress}" />

This field is used to enter an email address so there's a 99.9999% chance it will fail a spellchecker...

Steps to Reproduce

1. In ANY Maui app, add an entry field and use the following definition:

<Entry
	x:Name="EmailAddressEntry"
	ClearButtonVisibility="WhileEditing"
	IsSpellCheckEnabled="False"
	Margin="0,2"
	Placeholder="{x:Static strings:AppResources.PlaceholderEnterEmailAddress}"
	Text="{Binding EmailAddress}" />

2. Enter "asdefasdf@asdasdf.com"
3. The dreaded squiggly will be drawn showing the "spelling error"

For those who also have this problem. What can help is to also set the property Entry.IsTextPredictionEnabled to false within the Entry. Then text predictions and corrections are also disabled, and the squiggly line is gone (only verified on WinUI). See also the following link.

To disable spell checking, you can do the following:

<Entry ...
       IsSpellCheckEnabled="False"
       IsTextPredictionEnabled="False"
       ... />

This is also the case in the searchbar control. even Setting

IsSpellCheckEnabled="False"
IsTextPredictionEnabled="False"

doesn't change the text prediction or spell check lines in iOS

Verified this on Visual Studio Enterprise 17.7.0 Preview 1.0. Repro on Windows 11 with below Project:
MauiApp13.zip

Setting below, the squiggly line will disappear on Windows:

IsSpellCheckEnabled="False"
IsTextPredictionEnabled="False"

I confirm that squiggly line will disappear on Windows but will remain on iOS.

Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2022 (64-bit) - Current
Version 17.6.5
