A couple I put in were a bit suspect and there's been some discussion
in the Comments as to whether they should be tagged at all.

I think the "yoji" tag should only be going on the idiomatic ones
such as 海千山千 and not on obvious constructions such as 未収入金.

I think most of the ones on Kanji Haitaini's list and the Hanntaigo
are in the idiomatic category, but quite likely a few sneaked through.
If anyone sees examples that are obvious, feel free to propose the
removal of the tag.

The Shinmeikai 四字熟語辞典 is online at: http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/idiom/
and a good place to check.

Cheers

Jim
