<div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">Why wouldn't it be grammatical?
Pronouns-as-copula can take <b>-be'</b>: <b>loD Quch jIHbe'<i>.</i></b>
They can take <b>-bogh</b>: paq'batlh has <b>ghaHtaHbogh</b>.
<b>yIHmey bIHbe'bogh Ha'DIbaHmey'e'</b> seems completely fine to
me.</div>

<p>Note that the <b>-'e'</b> is not optional here.</p>
<p>Not only is it grammatical, but I don't see any reason not to say
it either, if it best expresses what you mean.<br>
