I support this.  I also support getting the "va'i" and "ke'u" scales aligned,
as long as we're thinking about changes.  They both mean "say again...say
differently", applied to words and larger constructs respectively, but
"ke'u" and "va'inai" mean "repeating", whereas "ke'unai" and "va'i" mean
"going on".  Bogus.

In addition, I would really like to see ".o'o" come to mean "anger", because
"angry" is a fundamental emotion like "fear" (.ii).  Can we still fix this?
