Hi, Steve: My belated apologies for missing the mappings call today. Last minute complications at my end. I had planned to note that Mike, Michael, and I discussed the lexical processing issue during our call this morning. Mike will be taking this forward, and we will update on Thursday's call. In fact, he may have already filed a bug around this, as that was one of the first actions he was to take on it.
