1. keep the current situiation, and regard {soi} as an exception of scope of terms;

2. keep the current situiation, and let {soi} loose the power of left-scope ({soi} becomes the same as {xoi});

3. create a new grammatical property for {soi}, and keep {xoi} as it is;

4. allow {soi}-clause become a "free", that has the same property as {sei}-clause (easier than 3.);

5. other.

I choose 4. (soi is exactly the same in grammar as sei) or 5. (retain the original meaning from CLL formalizing it first)

For other meanings intended in 1. and 2. I can only propose extending existing grammar like what's done in "altatufa parser, stable version":

Namely, {i broda noi mo} under this app parses as

(NIhO [I {FA ZOhE} {CU <FASNU (¹FA [LO {NU <(²FA mi²) (²CU [broda VAU]²)> KEI} KU] [noi {<FA ZOhE> <CU (²mo VAU²)>} KUhO]¹) VAU>}]) 

Can be tested at http://mw.lojban.org/extensions/ilmentufa/altatufa-stodi.html

Note that focus is not preserved in such parsing.

This also has an advantage of having {poi} / {noi} distinction for bridi relative clauses instead of proliferating cmavo over and over again making the language unnecessarily complex.
