Different words will be lost on different people. I've always wanted
some kind of javascript extension/tool where one can right-click a
word (or hold "D" and left click or something) and a small box will
open up with a Wiktionary definition of the word... Perhaps this has
already been written.

Most unknown words are technical and should be linked to their specific article.
