;;; vajni porsi    - Magic words are processed in order of precedence,

What's the advantage of having complex precedence rules over the
simple and without exceptions "first come first served" rule? It seems
to me that what you are proposing is a step backwards.

I see that you are also reverting to the old "SA + selma'o" rule,
which means that 80% of the grammar has to be devoted to SA handling.
