How About It, Webster?

Is “Ombuds” a verb?  If not, why not?  

You know, Jeremy.  This Blag is on the internet.  The same internet you can type this question into a search webpage and get an answer pretty instantly.  

I know that.  I also know that Ombuds is not a word, even though it should be.  That's not the point.  

The point is that I thought of this not all that long ago, and decided that Ombuds would make a great verb and that it needed to be one.  If nothing else, it makes people think.  

It makes them think you're a little off kilter, perhaps.   

So, everyone knows, or should know, of the word Ombudsman.  If only because it's a hilarious word.  One of those words that you say like 10 times in a row, and you can't help but to laugh.  But what is an ombudsman?  It's something of a middle man between two parties who help to settle differences.  Not quite to the extent of an arbitrator, but somebody who makes sure that things get straightened out.  I actually had to use an ombudsman at one point in a dispute between myself and the phone company when they refused to give me a phone line that worked.  This was some time ago when people had phone lines, but you get the idea.  

So what is the verb that should be used when an ombudsman is doing their job, acting as a go-between for two people?  They are ombudsing, of course.  It's not a word, and it's not in the Blag's spell checker, but that's beside the point entirely.  It darn well should be!  

I mean, after all, liaise is a verb to describe a liaison doing their job (dangerous or otherwise), so there is no logical reason that you wouldn't ombuds when performing your role as an ombudsman.  It just makes sense.
