Just to clarify, does the attached image not depict dictionary options that support this wish?

[Scott Womack]

Steve, Those options do support abbreviations, but miss two of the more important items in the wishlist item as written. 1) The the dictionary be by project, instead of by computer, and 2) that it allow a switching between the abbreviation, and the full word/ phrase that the abbreviation represents. These would fall closer to the keynoting system versus the Word dictionary
