If you want to think seriously about this topic, may I suggest you read http://mw.lojban.org/index.php?title=Magic_Words_Alternatives and the other magic words link I sent you. How to deal with these sorts of words is a hard problem in Lojban, with lots of corner cases. These documents contain some of the best thinking around.

To answer your specific question, having the magic word on the left does make things easier. After binding it would be considered a single word of the desired selma'o. Eg lo barda xaulo si bloti = lo barda bloti.

Thanks. I have done that and began the work. Here is my progress: https://github.com/trans/lojban-sentinels

Although still early (no doubt some important magic interactions still need consideration) I am thinking of introducing proposal in a new thread.
