meikyo:〘副ニ〙
  Comments: 
I think it's considered a special case. The kokugos only mark it as an adverb. Meikyo adds a "ニ" to the PoS tag.
存分 at least has some -な examples in the kokugos.

I don't think the actual level of adjectival use warrants that.
The POS of 存分 could be examined.

If thie can be 思う存分に, shouldn't this be adj-na just like 存分?
