Feature request: Add option for dictionary popup
I'm currently using https://github.com/meetDeveloper/Dictionary-Anywhere but it is not supported and has a few issues.
Would be nice to have this functionality in this extension? As per extension above, activated by user definable modifier key + double click.
That might be too specific of a use case for this addon. I'm trying to think of how to make that functionality more broadly useful for other engines. Adding a way to display the popup is trivial, but each engine would need a custom script to parse the useful information or manage a REST API call. As of the latest version (1.46.25) there IS an option to display results in a popup window, (Open in Popup Window) but it's not especially robust at the moment.
Yeah, I understand the "too specific" argument. I quickly tried the popup option but didn't work for me - maybe I've changed a Firefox setting that affects it? Hopefully you can think of an elegant solution that offers the functionality. :)

It may be a popup blocker issue. Although, I have my built-in blocker on, no exceptions, and can still get a popup window. YMMV
