Couldn't one create that distinction by how one sets the text?

Directly input the unicode character for the diphthongs, while allowing the 
ligatures to be constructed by OpenType rules --- that way the diphthongs would 
be left alone in situations like this, while ligatures would never be made when 
not appropriate.

I thought this was the whole point behind the Unicode Consortium choosing not 
to allocate code points for ligatures.
