Is your feature request related to a problem?
I haven't seen an issue here that matches my problem.

The problem that i have is that the new inline spell-checking gets in my way. A lot. I speak primarily german but i often interact with english-speaking people and thus end up writing a lot of english text. I also like to practice french, which means i have 3 languages to work with.

I have selected german as my primary dictionary, however this becomes a problem when i write a long text in english. I find myself editing previously written text a lot and going back and forth until i'm satisfied with my text. In order to do that quickly i tap the place within the text field, usually a word. This causes the inline spell-check to open a pop-up. Now the spell-check blocks the view. Not only that, it suggests words that are irrelevant in this moment.

I can tap out, but then i have to move the cursor back into place using the space bar. I tried enabling the language switching key but i can't find it on my keyboard.

Describe the solution you'd like
Two keys for the symbol bar: The language switcher key and a key to toggle inline spell-checking. That way i can both turn the feature on and off as needed and switch between languages. I can also pin these to the symbol bar. Users who do not commit polygluttony can turn these buttons off and/or unpin them.

I would also like to see a setting within the full settings view to turn inline spell-checking on and off in case a user does not want that feature and just wants suggestions.

Use case
The use-cases... I kinda ended up describing them already in my feature suggestion. It's bassically all about better multilingual UX.

Alternatives considered
The alternative would be to fix the language switcher key and only adding the inline spell-check in the full settings.

App version & Flavor
4.3.1-beta3 (Standard)

I switched to the beta version because it has a fix for foldable phones.
