If by "cmavo compounds" you mean lujvo made from zei-glued cmavo, then they would just be a subtype of lujvo. If you mean sequences of cmavo that often get written without a space, then to include them in the dictionary would just perpetuate the spurious and insidious notion that these are in some way distinct from sequences of cmavo written without a space. That notion already contaminates the ma'oste, and should be knocked on the head, not reinforced. --And.
