Chrome allows you to disable spellchecking on a per-field basis (right click -> Spell-checker options), however it defaults by spellchecking all single-line text input fields. Usually these fields are meant for email addresses or usernames, so you end up with a lot of red lines unless you manually whitelist all these fields. Firefox defaults to ignore these single-line input fields, allowing you to manually enable checking if you want.
This extension enables the Firefox spellchecking behaviour, only checking multiline textarea fields by default.
Known Issues:
If this extension is enabled, you cannot use the "Spell-checking options" to manually enable an input field. There is no way for the extension to know about this setting, currently, and there is no way to disable spellchecking while respecting Chrome's own settings. So if you rely on spellchecking for manually whitelisted text fields this extension will not work so great for you.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
