While adding this option for every single element may be challenging, I would
definitely recommend providing this feature in two steps. At first, make it
possible to disable spell checking on input areas as a whole. This should be
relatively simple, and would probably embrace all real world usage cases for
it.

So, at first, this new attribute/css property would be valid for <input>,
<textarea> and <body> only.

After that, if we feel it is necessary, this attribute could have effect in all
elements, but I don't see much usage for it for specific elements only in a
document, like inside an <em> for example. So, I would not give much priority
for this case.
