Agreed, provided that the entries for selma'o JA be updated to accurately reflect their tense-coordinating function. They do not currently do so, see http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=BPFK+Section%3A+Logical+Connectives

On it. Would providing examples of their use in this regard be enough, or do you mean mentioning this use in the definition, or both?
Also, are you referring to all JA, or only je specifically, since only je is used in the above?
I see that you said "selma'o JA", so that already answered my second question.
I have added the note: "May be combined with PU to indicate multiple tenses." to each of the JA cmavo, excepting {jo nai}, and also added the Usage Example from the PUJAPU that were deleted to the Usage Examples for the JA (All of them use {je}, as I mentioned). If that's not enough, let me know.
