Well, since the primary purpose of the extIPA is for disordered speech, I'll go on record that *my* disordered speech includes a linguolabial voiced stop. It's a "second tier" phoneme, though, occuring less frequently. OTOH, linguolabials are in the regular IPA, as bilabils with the "seagull" diacritic, X-SAMPA /_N/, U+033C. Paul
