Lume looks to be quite regular, in part because it's turning out that
its prepositions are full-fledged verbs. The carry a full lexical
load, so maybe they won't be as prone to idiomatic use as true
prepositions, which are more like quasi-verbs whose lexical load is
more vaguely defined than nouns, verbs, etc. ---larry
