I'm really interested in this too as I'm trying to convert a MDX dictionary (Italian - Zingarelli through Dictango app) to the stardict, since it's the perfect match for Koreader...

I'm experiencing the following bug on KOreader + Dictango: when I look up a word and it doesn't exist in its database, the Dictango window get stuck and covers the Koreader one, making it impossible to keep on reading...

I have then to force it close or go through the home page and then back to the app...

One last mention to this strange behavior:
last time I restarted my Palma 2 I had to open the Dictango app otherwise it wouldn't have worked automatically while reading my ebook on koreader (I guess it doesn't wake up the app consequently the first time, as the dictionary function wasn't toggled when requested but the word was simply highlighted by long-pressing)
