[Bug 852021] [NEW] I should be able to define specific dictionaries within a server for use in gnome-dictionary

 

Public bug reported:

The default server of gnome-dictionary offers no less than ~70
dictionaries. It always brings results from all of them. This takes a
lot of time. I cannot even control the order of results, so I have to
search for a simple, useful definition in a lengthy page instead of just
having a handy dictionary.

See the attached image for a taste of the ridiculous current situation.

I need a way to tell dictionary which dictionaries to use (and, of
course, it should remember it).
