PyGlossary allows to convert between many different dictionary formats, perhaps if that stardict.js is broken, a easy hack is to simply allow CSV dictionary import, by using PyGlossary a user can convert their favorite dictionaries to CSV and load up in the EasySubs.
You might even ship to the chrome store some of those dictionaries, or do an auto-downloader like how KoReader does. (Check the licenses, obviously)
It works 100% offline, and the ebook-reader community out there gives a lot of support to that format, and to creating new high-quality dictionaries in that format.
The simplest way to implement this, is to simply allow multiple dictionaries to be shown for each entry, then we can simply select let's say the IPA_DICT_FR and FR-EN-Wiki Dict, etc... This is how KoReader and GoldenDict does.
Multi-dictionary will also allow multi-language without any extra steps.
