TECH: Proposed new rafsi for NU cmavo



Nick Nicholas has proposed that all the abstractors of selma'o NU receive
rafsi.  Currently, only some NUs have rafsi: the others have conventional
equivalents based on the gismu from which the NU was etymologically derived.
The etymological link can be less than vivid: it is meant as a memory hook,
not as any kind of equivalent (unlike the BAI situation).

Here is a table of NU cmavo, the related gismu, the proposed rafsi, and
a change note.  This list constitutes newly created proposals 223-229
of the rafsi review.  Please comment ASAP.

mu'e    mulno           mub                     #229; was "mulnynun"

Note: All of these rafsi are currently free (as of the changes made by the
review), so no gismu or other cmavo are being "booted out".
