Version: (using KDE 4.2.98) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Currently, right-clicking a misspelled word in kmail brings up a menu with just three options, the last of which opens a submenu. For example, typing in the word "teh" and right-clicking yields a menu as follows: ┌─────────────────────┐ │Ignore │ │Add to Dictionary │┌────┐ │Suggestions for teh ►││the │ └─────────────────────┘│eh │ ... │t eh│ └────┘ There are two problems with this approach: 1. The easiest to click options are "Ignore" and "Add to Dictionary", which are also the only undoable options. Although in a spellcheck dialog these might be the most common options, in this use case users are unlikely to right-click a word which is already correctly spelled. 2. Actually correcting the word requires two clicks, which is unnecessary as the first menu is not excessively long. Therefore, I propose to rewrite the menu with the recommendations first and the "Ignore" and "add" options after, as follows: ┌─────────────────────┐ │the │ │eh │ ... │t eh │ ├─────────────────────┤ │Ignore │ │Add to Dictionary │ └─────────────────────┘ Any thoughts on this approach?
