I'm not talking about the contextual item but the ⌃⌘D popup; in my user account, it only shows up in editable text fields.

I made more tests:
Through the Service menu:
- I can look up selected words in editable and non-editable fields
Through the shortcut (that I had to reassign since ⌃⌘D was already in use):
- I can look up selected words in editable and non-editable fields (and I can do the same using the Dictioanry embedded in SpellCatcher)
Through the contextual menu (control-click)
- I can only lookup selected words in editable fields. Selected woirds in the middle of a page cannot be looked-up since the command doesn't show up in the contextual menu,
What puzzles me is what you call "⌃⌘D popup". On my Mac, the shortcut (not ⌃⌘D in my specific case) launches Dictionary which immediately starts looking for the selected word, but there is no "popup" per se... Same thing in Safari for instance. Am-I missing something?? It could be that I don't understand the bug because I've never actually seen the normal behaviour... I'll try to find a Mac with a different (more "classic") setup around here to test that.
