Looks OK.

  Comments: 
afraid I'm somewhat out of my league here, but feel like an element of 'warning' would be useful to make explicit. GG5 has some examples of this. feel free to reject of course.

Not even an entry in chujiten, interestingly.
  Comments: 
Maybe I'm being overzealous here but I think notes on usage 
should be notes, not glosses. The actual glosses I've added 
aren't great, though. I think maybe we should consider 
implementing the chujiten/prog model where some words don't 
have translations at all, only notes and examples?
