Does anyone know how to add a dictionary to FBReader?

So far as I know, the desktop version of FBReader does not have dictionary lookup support.

Under Windows, I have F10 set to MobiPocket Dictionary lookup. So Ctrl-C in FBReader (mapped to Copy to Clipboard) and then F10 brings up the MOBI dictionaries.

Under Desktop Linux, stardict has a "scan" feature that might allow lookup in FBReader.
