The senses, electroreception, synaesthesia

I am curious: how do Buddhist traditions treat senses other than the six that are traditionally given, e.g., electroreception (the ability to detect electrical fields/stimuli)? If there are actually more than six senses in some cases, it seems mildly problematic. Related question: how do Buddhists talk about synaesthesia? Are there any interesting issues surrounding this phenomenon?
