I am not impressed by the font configuration on gWaei 1.2.1. In GJiten there tehse setings:
Normal font [Sans 14]
Big font [Sans 18]
[X] Use large font for Japanese in WordDic search results
[X] Use large font for kanji results in KanjiDic
Why is it so hard to add those extremely usefull features? It should be quite obviousm why I need them: For people whose native language uses Latin...

The current implementation is a horrible nightmare. It is mostly caused by the lack of tag parsing by gtktextview/gtktextbuffer objects. We may need to switch to a different widget type or make some abstraction C code. At least libxml2 is included with the basic gnome install....
If this goes well, it may be worth looking into using the same design for outputing results as it allows more...

The dictionary organization while not complicated, is more difficult than it should be because the user has to click 5 different buttons to move a dictionary to the top instead of just clicking the same one 5 times or dragging. A good example of how it should be is in the addon preferences in GEdit.

I don't know how Epiphany does it, but there must be a way.

There are some other handwritting recognition engines out there nowadays that may be worth looking into. Otherwise, gWaei should have a bit of an overhaul of it's built in one. It should recognize hiragana/katakana, be more accurate, and be prettier. It needs to use cairo instead of gdk directives for drawing so that the lines are at least anti-aliased.

Contextual menus for tabs and other things would be a nice addition. Perhaps one to do searches of words from a different dictionary.

Glade is horrible. It keeps breaking the xml, and when with many widgets, it sometimes almost unusable because of heaviness and size of the window. Things will be much nicer and easier to maintain if it is all moved to C code.
