Mike's suggested solution does not include an editor hosted by the browser; it is the browser itself with contenteditable = true. If I add the attribution spellcheck=true, it enables spellchecking, I see it as I type. The only problem/annoyance so far, is that the right-click menu with correction suggestions appears all the way to the left of the screen, and not under he misspelled word as it should (this might be due to the 2 monitor setup I have here). Just started playing with it, haven't got much farther than that, yet.
