And of course, theres no links inside the dictionary popup, which could jump from a definition to another by clicking the words.
Nice way to reduce an useful feature. Its like they doing it on purpose to disappoint people the most they can.

Have to agree here. And it is astonishing how they messed up a simple standard feature like using a (specific!) dictionary ergonomically. It's not exactly rocket science to come up with a standard way to use dictionaries (let the user at least define the default one ....).

Even if you consider the fact that epub-embedded fonts are not overwritten with the user's choice a 'feature' (which, from my point of view is just a bad excuse for a blatant firmware issue) the fact that the user does not receive a notification after trying to set the font (and/or the fact that the affected dialogues are not greyed out for books where they have no effect) has to be considered as either a bug or very bad software design.
