Why not take inspiration from autosegmental phonology, and have
the Adv on a separate "tier"? Then in particular instantiations,
you could have an association line between the Adv and a
placeholder element that is either before the NP, between the NP
and VP, or after the VP.

This looks to me as an appropriate representation rather than as a
reification of the idea of free word order. I think that if I want
to avoid allotting more than one line to my structural
representation, it pretty much comes down to my last suggestions.
