    A proposal to encode CDP IDS operators was submitted some 5.5 years ago,

    http://linguistics.berkeley.edu/~rscook/pdf/UniProp-Final/02221-
    n2480.pdf

    but has been on the back burner ever since.

    If I recall, it needs to be revised, either to make CDP syntax
    explicit (it is different from IDS), or else to suggest encoding
    these things as dingbats.
