Google Docs most needed feature?

This is now available on Google Docs

I added a word to my custom dictionary whilst using Google Docs accidentally.  Guess what?  From what I can tell, you can not edit the custom dictionary to remove words that you have added by accident.

This is a really big problem when Google Docs is being used for academic work (such as when I use it for my Open University TMAs).

Imagine running a spell check and it coming up without errors, but you have previously added an incorrect word to the dictionary - it is likely that you would type this word incorrectly again too.

Google, please get your act together and sort out a way of doing this.  I may have to move back to Libre Office on my Ubuntu machine until this is sorted out - although I would rather use my Chromebook!
