Like Dr. Woolworth's paper, my vocabulary is good enough. Stopping to fiddle with a dictionary -- unless I'm trying to get by in a foreign language -- is simply a distraction. Specialized dictionaries for specialized topics are nice, but then again you're not going to find those built into your e-reader. And general dictionaries very often fall short when it comes to the archaic and arcane terms that send one looking in the first place.
But this is a matter of taste, like MP3 players in e-readers. I can't stand trying to listen to music while I'm reading, but I realize that others are not so easily distracted.
Custom dictionaries would be nice; I agree with jshzh.
