Instead of wishing for a verb that has a meaning similar to {-moH}, why
not go looking for one instead? {raD} often works, and if you *really*
want something close to a naked {-moH}, you can probably use {qaSmoH}.
If I wanted to say something that could be done by putting {...'e' moH X}
after it, I would probably put {Xmo'...} in front of it instead.
