I've been musing about making a freaklang too, with all sorts of non-trivial
articulation points and creaky vowels etc... but first I've got to bring
Obrenje into a somehow stable state, and give it some vocabulary.

Ummm... how about an articulation point flag (p, t, c, r, k, q, for
bilabial, dental, palatal, retroflex, velar and uvular?) followed by the
degree symbol (°)?
