Well, it sounded like a nice theory, anyway!

Do you suppose this phenomenon has anything to do with the lengthening of
poststress consonants in Welsh (c.f. Briony William's dissertation and
article in J. of Phonetics)? Or is this an independent development?

It's good to see this list getting active again!
