Increasing numbers of linguists have multimodal data of relatively rare languages, richly annotated for grammatical information. Querying these data, in the service of linguistic discovery, should be powerful and flexible. This paper explores both the promise of linguistic discovery, as well as the problems of open-ended querying and sibling searches: How to balance maximum accessiblity while attending to security and allowing open-ended queries? How to optimize searches for noncontiguous morphemes of a sentence?
