Description

Headword

In FLEx, always includes the homograph (if not unique) appended as subscript

Component

In FLEx:
<headword>[subscript(homograph)] [<sense-index> <sense-gloss>]

Strangely in FWL, for FLEx projects we show the homograph (not as subscript), but only if the component is associated with a sense.

Complex forms

In FLEx, just like standard headwords, because senses aren't relevant here.
However, FWL might need more, because we don't display complex-forms under specific senses, so that information is not available.

Research direction

Start by locating the headword, component, and complex-form formatting entry points for FLEx projects. Compare the current FWL output with the stated FLEx behavior, including homograph subscripts and sense association. Done means standard headwords, components, and complex forms display the intended homograph and sense information consistently.
