Aside from the thesaurus, nothing for me...

However, the thesaurus might benefit from certain changes to the main tree.

In particular, adding a menu item to the "right-click menu" when you're over
a word to bring up the thesaurus, and also the ability to add a shortcut key
to the menu option (i.e. shift+f7) would be wonderful. I don't know how hard
that would be to implement, and am not interested in figuring it out on my
own... ;)

For those who are interested, the new architecture for the thesaurus is
coming along very nicely, and I expect to have the core library overhauled by
some time next week, and a new interface may be ready for version 0.9.6 or
0.9.7. I, for one, am very excited about the new architecture, and think it
should give much better results while still using less disk space.

Thanks,
