Actually, come to think of it, this was more or less a Korahamla-inspired
dream, and if Korahamla *did* have a verb "to sit" or a noun "throne",
throne-sitting would perforce be a word, since verbs only exist as affixes
to nouns. Tree-sitting, chair-sitting, and ground-sitting would all be
words, too.
