Is any reader of this list currently doing work on the syntax and prosody of parentheticals, especially in non-Indo European languages? I would be especially interested to know if there are any labs or working groups dedicated to this question.

A exemplar of the kind of work I am interested in is Nicole Dehé's forthcoming book: http://www.amazon.com/Parentheticals-Spoken-English-Syntax-Prosody-Relation/dp/0521761921

I am particularly interested in evidence for phonology-syntax misalignments.
