Re: [bpfk] Proposal: sumti must always be tagged with "tag" even if it's elidible.

Standard Camxes.js: ([mi CU] [{ba brode} VAU] [gi'e {<pu brodo> VAU} VAU])

Neither this: http://www.lojban.org/camxes/
nor this: http://users.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/hobbies/lojban/grammar/lojban.peg.txt
seem to agree with that, so I suppose those are older versions of standard camxes.

But I'm glad the new standard has "tag !selbri KU?".

(BTW, "ge ca (ku) gi ba (ku) klama" seems to be failing if we elide the first "ku".)

Maybe it's better to just make the KU of "tag KU" not elidible in those three special contexts (are there more?).
 Yeah, I've noticed this flaw a few days ago. I'm not sure whether this can be fixed.

 I guess it's because "ca gi" wants to be a gek, so "ge ca gi" is like "ge ge". 

In order to "fix" it (if we grant it needs to be fixed, which I'm not sure we should) we may need to change the "stag gik" rule in "gek" to something like "stag gik &gek_tail", with

gek_tail = subsentence gik subsentence / sumti gik sumti_4 / ...

with all the possible uses of a "true gek". But I don't think we want to do that.
