Not actually to answer the question - but I just looked at
Heimerdinger's treatment of this issue ("Topic, Focus and Foreground in
Ancient Hebrew Narrative", p.25), and he notes that Muraoka excludes
WAYYIQTOL clauses from his investigation but still consludes that V-S is
the basic word order.


Is that the Jouon-Muraoka grammar, his book on emphatic constructions, or some other?


Heimerdinger references Muraoka's 1985 book "Emphatic Words and Structures in Biblical Hebrew" (Jerusalem: Magnes Press). He also writes in a footnote "Thus view is reiterated in Joüon and Muraoka (1991: 579, par. 155k)".
