If you look up "manager" or "follower" (for example), you will find many
synonyms in the thesaurus. However, if you look up plurals of words, e.g.,
"managers" or "followers," OO will find nothing.

Ideally, OO should be able to recognize plurals of words for what the singular
is, and then find synonyms based on the singular of the words.

Even better, it should be able to take whatever word one selects and then insert
the correct number (i.e.,, singular or plural) into the text.

In other words,let's say I look up "followers" and find "adherent" as a synonym,
if I select that choice OO should then plug in "adherents" into the text.

This is an OpenOffice-only problem. Reassigned to "lingucomponent".
