Why not? Except for pattern-match, all the others are possible. Root
can be the primary order. Then, an index can be added for the
phonetics. Synonyms? Add a "see also" clause to each entry.

Pattern-match is possible with computers. Otherwise, a paper-based
one can do the job. I don't like having to turn on a computer just to
look up a word. I'd rather not look it up.
