Don't be sorry -- this is what we needed at this point.

Yes (agent, patient, undergoer, theme, modifier, determinant, predicate).

Prefixed tag for common functions.
Separable form, used as a resumptive pronoun for relative clauses.

That would be a case tag (to distinguish "nouns" [agents, patients, undergoers,
themes] from "verbs" [predicates] from "adjectives" [modifiers, determinants]).
I don't want to have a different tag to mark PoS if the case tag already does that.

(see above for cases)

Yes, logical gender (person, animate, thing, concept, speech, as I proposed
in another post [a simplification of one of Carlos's schemes]).

Suffixed tag.

I don't understand what "crossing events" mean. But anyway,
I vote no for these -- I think gender and case/PoS tags should
be kept on the opposite ends of words.

Precase only, precase + postposition, or postposition only,
according to our needs (will we say "here" or "herein"?).
