Great! I will give it a try.

ok, I can update LiveCD scripts to download/install this dictionary.

ok.  In which use cases, it was broken? … I ask because they seemed  
to work not too bad in my tests.

I will fix this bug related to toolbar and I also really need to find  
time to merge customization support (I have to merge it from -toolbar  
branch in GNUstep -trunk). I would prefer to keep toolbar since it  
helps to standardize UI and gives really nice features. In the  
meantime, I'm perfectly fine with current solution. Do you know if  
this responder bug also appears with basic text field?

Cheers,
Quentin.
