The appendix clarifies this to mean that the adverbial comes in front of
the object-verb-subject construction, and that the adverbial can be
preceded by other elements, such as time stamps.

Question words aren't technically listed with adverbials, so they might not
fall under the same object-verb-subject rule. That said, I can think of at
least one example of a question word that goes with the main clause:
*potlhbe'chugh
yay qatlh pe''eghlu'?*
