For all that Mark thinks that the problem will be lasting, it should be trivial for the tools - lexer/parser/glosser etc, to include such things as a check for "la" and related strings in what otherwise parses as a cmene token, and flag it with a clear error message. In the absence of skilled editors, the classic standard of evaluating Lojban text for publication has been to run it through the parser.

I should put "won't this be solved by better technology?" as one of the responses on the wiki page.
