dear rolf,

i tried to check your statement that the W+affix forms in the DSS 
are just conjunctive, i.e. cannot be described as consecutive or inverted.
i assume you were referring specifically to those which are copies of biblical
text, otherwise comparison cannot be made. thus i assume you consider the big
isaiah scroll among them. the photo of the scroll can be found in
               http://www.ao.net/~fmoeller/qum-1.htm

i checked only the first "page" which corresponds to roughly
isa 1:1-25. i must admit the quality is not the best...

anyway, weqatal on v.8 is illegible (WNWTRH or NWTRH). WYSRNY 
indeed seems to lose the W (v. 11). but the two wayiqtol W$M(TM 
and WMRYTM (v. 19,20) are biblical alright. thus, at least 50% 
biblical prefix forms on the first "page".

i did not investigate further, for lack of time; but if you have, 
could you please make a more precise statement consistent with 
this observation?
