*Specification*
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/interaction.html#autocorrection
*Summary*
The HTML autocorrect attribute allows web authors to control whether
autocorrection should be applied to user input in editable elements
including <input>, <textarea>, and contenteditable hosts. The feature
makes the 'autocorrect' attribute to be exposed to web authors.
*Blink component*

*Web Feature ID*
autocorrect <https://webstatus.dev/features/autocorrect>
*Motivation*
The 'autocorrect' HTML attribute has been implemented long ago, but
since it's not defined in any exported IDL, websites fail to detected
it as supported.
*Initial public proposal*

*TAG review*

*TAG review status*
Not applicable
*Goals for experimentation*
None
*Risks*
*Interoperability and Compatibility*
The feature is supported in Firefox and Safari, so I don't think there
is any interoperability risk on exposing this feature.

*WebView application risks*
Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such
that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

*Debuggability*

*Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows,
Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?*
Yes
The platform support varies considerably, given that this feature
depends heavily on the underlying OS capabilities for spell checking
and IME functionalities.
*Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?*
Yes
The Web Platform Tests coverage is quite limited in terms of
functionality due to the high dependency on the platform's
capabilities. There are a few tests to check the IDL correctness and
some basic spec conformance.

*Anticipated spec changes*
Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github
issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution
may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or
structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
