ZOI and EOF



Should ZOI clauses close at end of input?  I don't think so, but thought
I'd ask.  Here's the relevant grammar.300 bit:

    a. If the Lojban word "zoi" (selma'o ZOI) is identified, take the
    following Lojban word (which should be end delimited with a pause
    for separation from the following non-Lojban text) as an opening
    delimiter. Treat all text following that delimiter, until that
    delimiter recurs *after a pause*, as grammatically a single token
    (labelled 'anything_699' in this grammar).  There is no need for
    processing within this text except as necessary to find the closing
    delimiter.

Interestingly, according to grammer.300, "la'o" needs no special
proccessing.  I'm treating that as an obvious mistake, though.
