I think "better" is stretching it.

None of the non-reviewed new entries are there since submitted and  
not reviewed only exist on WWWJDIC...  and what does Translate Words  
give you when there isn't a matching entry?  Partial matches which  
you could mistake for a match?  Or silently skips it?  Will I notice  
that it was skipped?  If we're talking 100's of words, there's a lot  
of noise there, and no simple output list to work with - and you  
would have to go check each and every word to see if Translate Words  
recognized it... though granted you might want to do that anyways.

Reason I "wish" for this is that I may well have such lists available  
to me now.  At least for a little while.

Maybe "more expedient" is the "better" word.

I'll use the Translate Words and see how it does... but this is still  
my wish.
