Subject: [Bug 202143] New: Reorganize kmail dictionary suggestion menu

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202143

Summary: Reorganize kmail dictionary suggestion menu
Product: kmail
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs@xxxxxxx
ReportedBy: vectro@xxxxxxxxxx


Version: (using KDE 4.2.98)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages

Currently, right-clicking a misspelled word in kmail brings up a menu with just
three options, the last of which opens a submenu. For example, typing in the
word "teh" and right-clicking yields a menu as follows:

âââââââââââââââââââââââ
âIgnore â
âAdd to Dictionary âââââââ
âSuggestions for teh âââthe â
ââââââââââââââââââââââââeh â
...
ât ehâ
ââââââ

There are two problems with this approach:
1. The easiest to click options are "Ignore" and "Add to Dictionary", which are
also the only undoable options. Although in a spellcheck dialog these might be
the most common options, in this use case users are unlikely to right-click a
word which is already correctly spelled.
2. Actually correcting the word requires two clicks, which is unnecessary as
the first menu is not excessively long.

Therefore, I propose to rewrite the menu with the recommendations first and the
"Ignore" and "add" options after, as follows:
âââââââââââââââââââââââ
âthe â
âeh â
...
ât eh â
âââââââââââââââââââââââ
âIgnore â
âAdd to Dictionary â
âââââââââââââââââââââââ

Any thoughts on this approach?
