Yes, this won't work if you constantly highlight, search, look up stuff. i do that too at times, but I don't need to. And I don't always turn it off. Mainly when I have longer reading session of 30 minutes plus.
I suppose they could have made a multi step turnoff. Mabye that was just too complicated to implicate.

I think this is a very nice addition but I do look words up fairly frequently. Depending on the book of course. Some books I could read the entire tome without one lookup... others it could be one word per reading session.
