dictionaries: shared user additions w. community review

I've just reinstalled OO after a format c: Of course, I forgot to save my standard.dic, so all words I ever added to it are gone. The dictionary feature would be far more powerful, if this feature were added: 1. OO ask users whether they want to share their dictionary additions with an online repository (via install routine or in the settings). 2. Have new words added only if a certain number of users add it to the database, accompanied by manual of user review. The result would be a fast growing standard.dic in any language, and users like me wouldn't loose their additions upon reinstall.
sounds like an reasonable rfe
