I'm now having second thoughts about the System Settings design. It does make explicit the entire contents of your user dictionary, but it's fairly unlikely that someone will stop in the middle of their typing, and go to the trouble of diving deep into System Settings just to remove a word. And if they don't stop in the middle of their typing, it's even less likely that they'll remember to do it sometime later.

I wonder if we could achieve the same effect by making the UI essentially invisible. A word should be added to the user dictionary if you type it and refuse correction enough times; maybe it can be removed from the user dictionary if it is suggested or auto-completed and you undo it enough times.
