I'd be interested to see if you'll start recommending I use this form in Much
Ado, SuStel! :-) And of course, Qov now has imprimatur to use it.
But I don't like it. No sir. I'd be interested to see if embedded-relativiser
languages on Earth have headless nouns, actually... (Which means I should get
around to reading Christian Lehmann's 1000-page German monograph on
relativisers. *sigh*)
