Spellcheck and autocorrect are disabled when Coffeeshop Mode is on.

(although, IIRC, you can override that)

Another reason: autocorrect/autocomplete can trigger visible previews/highlights on the screen.

(thinking about this out loud here: what about IME/pinyin? That works well in both modes, it's necessary)
