Prodigy's combo interface for annotating relations and spans at the same time is actually geared more towards relations than it is spans. Our project is the opposite — the spans are the most important. I think it's worth it to separate the tasks, so that:
if we want to try a totally heuristics-based strategy for relations, we can do that after the spans are set
we can use the dedicated spans interface for annotating spans, which is somewhat nicer-looking
the logic in the current recipe is spread out/a little more modular
