True -- I was just pointing out that the back-end is always a database
search, so don't assume from the UI that you always have a full list of
items to present. That's all I meant. :)
I'd also suggest that if you do want to work on this, a phrase-wheel
widget really is the right approach, and I'm still willing to send you
the python code if you feel like you could translate it to C. :)

There should be a config file in the source tree already.
