Problem: users cannot easily view a "morpheme glossary"

[jrwdunham]

Problem

Users often want to be able to see a glossary (list) of all morphemes in their system. They typically want to be able to see all of the functional morphemes and their glosses, e.g., DET 'the', CONJ 'and', PREP 'to', etc.

Acceptance Criteria

• Determine whether we can adequately distinguish (functional and lexical) morphemes from amongst the set of forms in an OLD.
  • It should be possible to do this using heuristics on OLD forms (e.g., those without morpheme breaks in their morpheme-break values are likely to be morphemes) and/or using the syntactic category functionality and its accompanying type attribute.
• Determine whether we can construct a Morphemes Page/Glossary in DativeRF using the data gleaned above. I am hoping we can do this without modifying the OLD API, i.e., do it purely in DativeRF.
• We may also want to do some work under this ticket to better support "automatic morpheme insertion" during form creation and editing. The general idea is that DativeRF would make it easier for the user to automatically enter the morphemes that are implicit in their current phrasal form entry and DativeRF would try to avoid duplicate morpheme creation.
