case:loc: postpositional localizer

We treat a closed set of postpositions (traditionally known as “improper adpositions”) as localizers. (See ADP for a list of localizers.)

The head of the localizer is the noun or the main verb of the clause preceding it. Localizers are always tagged ADP. When it follows a noun, it receives the case:loc relation label. But if it follows a verb and acts as an adverbial, it receives the obl relation (but retains the tag ADP).
