Input should set autocomplete="off" by default

See original GitHub issue

I am placing this input into a form with other inputs which I still intend to have the autocompletion function, so I can’t turn off autocompletion for the whole form. How to set the input attribute autocomplete to off? Doesn’t it make sense also for this input box to automatically disable autocompletion?

It should be:

const inputProps = {
  onChange: this.handleChange,
  value: this.state.address,
  autoComplete: 'off'
}

Note it is autoComplete, not autocomplete.

@lauterry Thanks! That fixed it for me. @kenny-hibino can the default be switched to disabled instead of off?
