Disable spell check on field names in Android Studio

I have been using Eclipse/ANT for 5 years now. Android Studio is out of beta so I am starting to get myself familiar with it. Android Studio seems to be spell checking field names. Why on earth would any IDE do that?

I still want spell check enabled, but not on any field names. I would expect spell check to only check comments or javadoc. How can I fix this?

    I think because people can make typos in field names as well.

    I'd say it's not even broken ;) Check out the preferences, you'll find that you can define the scope of spell checking. (Editor / Inspections / Spelling)

    Final. Since yesterday.
