On the whole I think it is more profitable to create new cmavo in
these cases, because it separates out the "we need a way to say X"
issue from the "expression Y should mean X" issue.
In this particular instance, though, we don't need a cmavo -- a
lujvo would do. (Same goes for my construal of {me}, too.)

Thanks. These kind remarks you keep slipping in in passing don't
go unremarked!
