What you did for your 'English - English' dicthtml-en-en.zip file is really a subset of the instructions in surquizu's post, namely steps 4-6. Steps 1-3 aren't necessary because Kobo already knows about and supports the 'en' English locale. Once upon a time (pre- fw 4.8) step 5 wasn't required for Kobo-supported locales but unfortunately it is now - hence the SQLiteSpy necessity.
Kobo don't supply a dicthtml-en-en.zip file so they are not constantly trying to overwrite it every time you connect via wi-fi or Kobo Desktop, i.e. the simple trick works for one additional English dictionary. The same trick should also work for one additional 'Deutsch - Deutsch', 'Français - Français' etc.
The full 'Extra dictionaries' method is the most versatile when you want multiple English (or any other language) dictionaries or to use a non-Kobo-supported locale e.g. Polish (pl)
