I agree with the sentiment.  It seems a safe way to go.  I do not like 
the notion of developing lots of voculary based on an unsupported theory 
of word order.  The speculation is interesting in its own right, but 
taking it any further to me means you're not doing Klingon any more.  
Sorry, that's just my view on it.
