--- Comment #2 from Sevenseraphim <[email protected]> ---
Honestly though I think that the dictionary widget or functionality could be
completely merged into krunner. Spotlight (similar to krunner) used in Macs has
a very nice implementation of it. Any time you search for a single word, a
dictionary definition is always there as an option, although there's probably a
way to toggle it off for people who don't like it. This makes looking up a
definition extremely fast since you already have a memorized shortcut that you
use for krunner, (presumably on a regular basis) so there's no need to open any
other widgets or memorize any other shortcuts.

I know that you can manually type the word "define" before any word in krunner
to trigger this functionality but that slows things down by an order of
magnitude, to the extent that I never use it. The "ideal" situation would be to
either copy paste a word or middle click it into krunner and immediately have
the definition show up as one of the results. There's no need for a separate
dictionary widget then.

Please see the screenshot below for reference (not my screenshot I just found
it on the web)
