Switch to dictionary, the state is preserved from the editor suggestion and back #216

Original report by me.

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 216

I cannot reproduce this yet, but I've seen it several times when working with 1.8.5+.
Sometimes when typing in the editor and scrolling through suggestions, you switch to
the dictionary page and it lists the same suggestions. You change something, then switch
back and the updated (even unrelated) list is displayed as suggestions.

This is highly probably since Wakan indeed uses the same list internally but it tries
to hide the fact from the user. Perhaps sometimes it fails.

Needs to be found and fixed, and maybe Wakan should just use a separate suggestion
window. I'm not sure because it's possible to show the dictionary underneath the editor
and it's the same dictionary and it makes sense that some options from the standalone
dictionary are carried there. Maybe present implementation is alright, just fix the
bug and forget.

Can reproduce:
1. Open dictionary, enter some word (e.g. souzou)
2. Switch to editor, press Space.
3. Observe: suggestion box pops up which lists the results from the souzou query.

(That's not exactly what I observed before but maybe it's related)

Can not reproduce at this time (#49b3b8d70281), perhaps fixed with other fixes to input
routines.
