Note that if you use the same locale as a built-in dictionary, it will not conflict since all custom ones matching a valid locale will have " (Custom)" appended to the name.
Also, the bug with custom dictionary sizes in the settings and with it saying it needs to sync has been fixed along with a bunch of other bugs related to dictionary lookup.
When you install this firmware version, it should automatically move your custom dictionaries.
I will add support for the new install method in dictutil later this week.
See the dictutil issue on GitHub I linked near the top of this thread for more details about this.
An internal detail which might be interesting is that there's a new dicthtml v3 format for built-in dictionaries (custom ones use v2). I'll be adding support to dictutil later, but it's a lower priority for me. This format adds a prefix_exceptions file (for the same reason as the dictutil workaround with duplicating variant entries) and a new option to set the credit text by adding a global zip archive comment. The word matching appears to be the same. It will work fine with existing v2 dictionaries, but v3 dictionaries which use prefix_exceptions will not be fully functional if used on older firmware versions.
For anyone currently using my TOC patches, note that these changes are essentially the same thing. I will be removing the two TOC patches and replacing them with one which allows you to change the indentation.

Thank you, as I use both custom dictionaries and TOC patches, I'll wait for them (or I'll go to github
)
