Yes it would be.  I totally agree.  The fact that this functionality
already exists (or is close to existing -- that I don't recall) had
slipped my mind and I indicated that in a different post.  As for using
the Internation Phonetic Alphabet, I agree with that, too.  At least,
that would make the most sense.  I just wasn't sure if the spellings I
saw at dictionary.com or the ones I recalled myself were correct, so I
improvised.
