I'm saying users should be given the option to manually, transparently switch the iOS dictionary language on demand, on-the-fly, whenever they wish. (Look at the Kindle app.)

Manually and transparently are opposites

If you are telling: add an option to switch the language aside of changing keyboard, well, another option instead of keyboard. I don't think it's so different (BTW, I explicitly mentioned Work because I know it doesn't work

)

Novelty of format is not important for me, usability is. We are talking about today, not the future. And I know some people who use rigid PDF with 6" pages... very, very useful for math... There are a lot of options.
