How long have you waited?

IMHO the 'Open Dictionary' is so FUBAR'd, it's not funny. It can take an age
to find all the applications on your machine. I'd much rather they gave you
a regular Open File dialog and let you navigate to the app you wanted. It's
not like there's any advantage to the current implementation - it still
shows every app whether or not that app has a dictionary, which would be
about the only advantage I can think of.
