For some specific terminology, you might want to get creative, if you can't find precedent. I would prefer something like tub(o)flano or tub(o)sandviĉo.

That one is not bad! I would prefer this word as well. The most important would be to have a more or less standard way of saying it, instead of a million different words for something like a wrap.

Roch:Why not Vrapo, from russian, Tempodivalse?

I'm worried about the internationality of that form ... Some Russians might not even be sure what a врап is (сэндвич-рап would be more comprehensible), though according to Wikipedia, "Wrap" is used in several languages' entries.

I kind of prefer a compound, though, and assuming that "wrap" is not international in the Rule 15 sense, a compound would be more readily intelligible.

"wrap" is like "stir fry" and "smoothie" - American marketing names for things from other cultures. In the USA a wrap can be a tortiljo or platpano (like in Swedish and Norwegian) or Chinese 饼 (bǐng). I don't know why everything has to be Americanized for the rest of the world. I understand why they use these terms in the US and that is not a bad thing but internationally imposing these Americanisms on other cultures, especially when they already exist there, is not good. Stir fry is from Chinese 炒, pinyin: chǎo - and should be something like ŭoki in Esperanto. A smoothie is a batida in the Caribbea (I know a batida in Brazil is with cachaca, but that isn't a bad thing either, haha) and has been for ages, long before the "smoothie" came along. I would say kremsuko in Esperanto.

"Platpana volvajxo" should be relatively clear, or sandvicx-volvajxo.

I would strongly recommend against anything involving "tortiljo", since Spanish speakers in different parts of the world have totally different ideas of what a "tortilla" is.

krespo
flano
krespo farĉita
flano farĉita

The problem with such words is that people all over the world do not eat the same things, so those words can't be international, only national. And as such they deserve more descriptive forms to be understood properly, don't they?
