LojGloss is just getting more exciting as each day goes by.

I recommend that if you do any further work on this issue, that the
most LojGloss should do about prohibited consonant clusters is flag
them to the user's attention. Please continue to give the user
information about the meaning of the components of an impermissable
word. A program that tells you what's wrong is more helpful than a
program that demands input be perfect or it will choke silently. You
made a good decision.
