Seconded...

again, it seems a bit excessive to object with such animosity. after all, new words become part of commonly used language by being used.

True, but you don't use that word exclusively until it's a common word. A good word doesn't need artificial pushing, as ardeegee so aptly put it, to become common. It will be common because it's easy to use and people understand, without too much extra information, what the word means. And lisseauuse isn't easy to use and won't say a thing to a majority of people out there.
