I can copy that pull request here, but I don't know Qt enough to tell if it's good.

xiaoyifang/goldendict-ng#417 is not a good extensible implementation.
Maybe the Compound expressions feature which has been around there for a long time is exactly what you need:

Doing so does not need to make a big fuss to satisfy someones' desire. And of course, it is also possible to do these jobs in a Program dictionary by caching search history.

The file globalbroadcaster.h modified by that PR has been introduced in goldendict-ng and is not present here. So it's not a simple matter of copying.

Compound expressions

This feature won't work with Japanese because sentences there have no spaces.
For Japanese something like mecab or marisa has to be used. Of course that could be integrated in goldendict, but it would probably require more work.

Ah, right, I should've checked first.

Yes, for Japanese, and also Chinese... something like built-in word segmentation function is very necessary and a more general implementation can be done on the basis of Compound expressions.
