Since prepositions often change meaning based on the case of the object, and the rest of the "parsing information" for prepositions is basically empty, would it make sense to add the case to the parsing information of the preposition?

e.g,. in Jude 1:3, you'd change

260103 P- -------- περὶ περὶ περί περί

into

260103 P- ----G--- περὶ περὶ περί περί

This would make it easier to search for specific versions of a preposition, easier to label various preposition cases for study tools, and (in my case) easier to track Greek learner's usages of the various cases.

If this seems like a useful direction to go in, I could put it on my to-do list and send you a PR at some point.

Interesting idea. I can see the value in it. Can anyone spot downsides?

I think it's a wonderful idea and I'd certainly accept a PR.

Great! I'll add it to my backlog. It may take a few months to get to.
