Edge planing on a Roman Bench?

Need more help adapting to use my Roman/low workbench. Y’all helped me a lot with the technique for long faces. Now I need to figure out what to do with long edges. It has a face vise and a hole for a holdfast on the other leg. Putting on those make the board fairly low if I try to stand. Tried sitting on the bench from the other side but that feels awkward. Sitting in my chair, the board is a little tall and it’s hard to go along the length.

suggestions for edge planing on a low bench? Or for disabled folks in general?
