OK, I think I must have misunderstood what you were saying in an earlier 
message -- sorry for my confusion. Your example (2) agrees with what I 
was thinking.

(After re-reading some of the earlier messages in this thread, I'm 
finding myself less certain just how well-established this convention 
is. In particular, Richard's page mentions that input methods expect the 
light tone to be typed after the syllable, which was not what I thought 
I remembered -- but I'm not a Chinese typist!)

Anyway, sorry for the noise due to my mis-reading.
