Great.  I agree.  But I think when looking last, transChange had a 
hardcoded list of changeTypes, which didn't include anything for 
tenseChange.

Great, it allows w, but doesn't allow another transChange sub-element. 
This is my question:

If an entire phrase has had it's tense changed, should I surround the 
phrase with a <transChange changeType="tenseChange">?
if so, I'll need to have transChange inside this for other things that 
may have been changed.  If not, I'm also happy with just surrounding 
each verb in the phrase that has had its tense changed, but that might 
be tedious.
