I am certainly not thinking of all of your use-cases. However, here
is a possible alternative «solution» with headings. Just being
curious: What disadvantages do you see here compared to lists?
*** main word|subordinate word, subdivided into grammatical relations A, B, C, &c.
:PROPERTIES: ## or: :identification:-drawer
:mainform: Abbacy
:obsolete: no
:nonnaturalized: no
:pronunciation: æ•basi
:partofspeech: substantive
:specification: none
:status: default
:spellings: 5-6 abbasy, 6-7 abbacie
:...OR...:
:spelling: 5-6 abbasy
:spelling: 6-7 abbacie
:inflections: none
:END:
#+COMMENT: Previous list as properties does have multiple advantages
#+COMMENT: such as column view (+ corresponding edit functionality)
#+COMMENT: Following lines seem to contain potential multi-line
#+COMMENT: text which does not qualify to be handled well in properties:
- [morphology]
- derivation (etymology) :: A modification of the earlier
ABBATIE, assimilated to forms like prelacy, mediaeval Latin
-acia, -atia.
- subsequent form-history ::
- miscellaneous facts ::
**** TODO: significations & illustrative quotations
#+COMMENT: I personally prefer todos that can possible get SCHEDULED
#+COMMENT: and/or DEADLINE dates to be headings.
