How to disable Mac OS X's autocorrect but still show spelling suggestions?

I welcome popup spelling suggestions, but I dislike the OS replacing text as I type without any real confirmation from me.

I'm aware both behaviors can be enabled/disabled together as one option in System Prefs > Keyboard > Text, but would anyone know a way to disable the autocorrect while leaving the tooltip-style suggestions intact…perhaps via the Terminal? Thank you.

Mac OS X 9.4 (Mavericks)


When a suggestion happens and the word is underlined in blue, then right click the word and goto Spelling and Grammar and uncheck Correct Spelling Automatically.
