  [osk] no way to remove user added dictionary words

Bug description:
  when spell checking is enabled, any word the user types that is not recognized gets added to the user dictionary (I think).
  The problem is once a word gets added there is no way to delete it and it always shows up on the word ribbon, whether you want it or not.

  We should be more selective when adding words (i.e. if you type
  asdafadfadsfadsfadsfadsf that gets added). We can address that in
  another bug. For this bug, I think we need to provide the user with a
  way to remove words they added to the dictionary.

  One idea: press and hold the word on the word ribbon would produce an
  "x" button which when pressed would remove the word from the
  dictionary. This would be consistent with how users close apps, delete
  bookmarks, etc.
