Does any script (including invented phonetic scripts that are not
natively used for a natural language) treat a retracted tongue root as
a consonant (perhaps an approximant) with its own grapheme?
For example, in such a script, <bulky> might conceivably be spelt as
[br"#kI] with [r"] being a vowel represented by a ramshorn in IPA and
[#] being a "retracted tongue root approximant".
