I'm still hesitant to merge the notations for normalization and for grammatical insertions. The main reason is that they differ not just superficially, but also in their fundamental inspiration. Normalization has to do with updating old and obselete words and names. Grammatical insertions, on the other hand, are fabrications made by us for textual cohesion. So one is canonical, the other textual.

If the only problem is the number of different notations, I would now (despite saying the opposite a few posts back) be more inclined to merge outline expansion with grammatical insertions, leaving normalization separate.
