do we need an arabic english arabic dictionary ?



Hi all,
I have this idea in my head for a long time. Do we need an arabic 
english arabic dictionary for the average user ?

A project like this'll need a dictionary database which - i think we 
can't get - So i've used the full_wordlist* files.
attached a simple perl script i've used and here is the command:

for i in *; do perl /home/mohammed/projects/po2txt $i >> dict; done

then i've imported the file into a MySQL database.
now before doing anything i wonder:

* Are those files suitable ?
* Do we really need such a project ?
* Is there anything more suitable than MySQL ?
* Any farther comments ?

I know that extending the words database is a must. but i'm thinking 
about the simplist approach now!
