Hi, Elizabeth:

Since your system

<at [L1] ><in [L]>

is actually just text, which could be used with *any* values, not just prepositions, I would not be concerned that any preposition-handling change would "mess you up". At least, *my* suggestion certainly would not affect your approach, except to offer an alternative if you chose to use it in a specific case.
