There is a consideration that does, in fact, complicate the implementation of such a feature. I suspect the overwhelming majority of Ancient Greek dictionaries will not know what to do with unaccented words. Thus you are faced with the opposite problem that Latin presents. Most Latin dictionaries will reject the macrons. How do you specify which word to send to the dictionary? The accented one or the unaccented one?
Some misc notes only:
For sending accented vs unaccented - no idea - maybe the code that cycles through the dictionaries could send one and then the other. Not clear though.
I just saw this older issue and thought it might have an easier solution.
Notes from a slack chat:
My thoughts:
Rendered TextTokens (i.e., words shown in the reading pane) would include the accents, but Terms (stored in the db) would be without accents, and the rendered TextTokens would be associated to Terms w/o accents.
No idea at the moment if this would be tough or not!
