E.g. I suppose COhE_elidible should be inserted to more constructs. but I haven't looked at where it can be done. What else apart from what has been done can be autocorrected to bridi status?

Every fragment can. For example instead of fragment "ek" you could have "KOhA_elidable ek KOhA_elidable COhE.elidable", where KOhA_elidable could return "ZOhE". 

Not sure I would use that. How would this work for joik? {joi} fragment could be understood both as {zo'e joi zo'e co'e} and as {co'e joi co'e}

"joi" can't be a fragment though. The reason is that it would clash with the sentence connective ".i joi". Fragment is a weird rule, I would happily remove relative clauses, links and linkargs from it. I don't think fragment "na" is used much either.
  
Okay, then I'll add
fragment = COhE_fragment / ek free* / gihek free* / quantifier / (NA_clause !JA_clause free*)+ / relative_clauses / links / linkargs

COhE_fragment = prenex (terms GOhA_elidible VAU_elidible free*)* / terms GOhA_elidible VAU_elidible free*

sentence = terms? bridi_tail_t1 (joik_jek bridi_tail / joik_jek stag? KE_clause free* bridi_tail KEhE_elidible free*)* / COhE_fragment

Thus only COhE_fragment can be a sentence, and the structure of COhE_fragment is limited only to {mi zo'u ca ma}, {mi ije ma} and {mi djica lo nu lo plise}.

I wonder whether it wouldn't be more elegant to eliminate COhE_fragment and make the "selbri" of a bridi-tail elidable instead. Something like:

 bridi-tail-3 <- selbri? tail-terms / gek-sentence

At some point there was talk of making the selbri of a sumti-tail elidable as well, so that "lo ku" would be a valid sumti.
