Use Unihan data to guess which meaning you meant #130

CEDICT can contain several entries for the same characters, and there is no indication as to which meanings / readings are more frequent. The Unihan database organises readings by frequency, so we can use that to help us guess which CEDICT meaning to pick.

CJKlib does not appear to give us frequency info right now :(

Hi, that's true. Any ideas how to implement that in a "objective" way? Frequency depends on the source, and I don't want to push any particular frequency data. Maybe a schema for different frequency sources could be implemented, similar to CharacterDomains, which can be easily extended by own data.
