Thank you all for the resources. Rene's Cardan Grille is the closest to what I was envisioning.
For a long time we have known that many Voynichese clusters are interchangeable: the same letter patterns that follow "qok-" can also follow "shok-" or "ot-". The same clusters that precede "-daiin" usually precede "-dy" or even "-or". One easy way to make sense of this is to hypothesize that Voynich words somehow have an underlying 3-part structure - it's easy to teach to a second Scribe (or three), and the words would be easy to analyze if you know what to look for. But as Mark Knowles said, this only explains a portion of the words - so more work to be done
