Bug Description

When i try to add a word to my dictionary and i have just one, there are a submenu asking for what dictionary i want to use... I think that maybe could be great if we have only the ADD option if we have only one dictionary... I attach a screenshot and sorry because i speak spanish.

Confirmed. I agree that it would be better to just have an Add button. I'm also marking this as Confirmed for the papercuts.

When there is only one dictionary the add button shouldn't have the dropdown list, it should just be a plain add button.

Patch to have the add-to-dictionary-button add the word to the dictionary without the pupop when only 1 active dictionary.

I have created a patch to enable this.

The problem however is that the dropdown-arrow at the button justs adds the word to the dictionary. It won't dropdown the list. I think to change that wouldn't be a easyhack as you´ll need to change the menubutton-item.
