[Bug]: Nextcloud Notes not respecting spelling

[howardlowndes]

⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️

• This is a bug, not a question or a configuration/webserver/proxy issue.
• This issue is not already reported on Github OR Nextcloud Community Forum (I've searched it).
• Nextcloud Server is up to date. See Maintenance and Release Schedule for supported versions.
• I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.

Bug description

Nextcloud: v 28.0.3
Notes: v 4.9.4
Language: English (British English)
Locale: English (Australia)
The spelling appears to be US focused - 'z' being offered to replace 's' as an example. Not all of us agree with Noah Webster's Blue Book :)

Steps to reproduce

Normal use of Notes with Language and Locale as stated above

Expected behavior

Spelling should align with Language and/or Locale
