I agree with you, MaXxX. If this feature is supplied, the option
should be reversed--OFF by dafault, ON by application-users' choice.

However--although  certainly  it should not go in this beta series, in
my opinion--the hover-mouse idea (40-tude given as example) would suit
me very well, and better than the "expanded" idea.

It's a Trillian Instant Messenger dialogue feature and I have enjoyed
it very much. (Trillian's version defines words, also; I think that I
would prefer not to have it that expanded in The Bat!)
