Actually, the reason that there isn't a Unicode TC/SC mapping table is 
that nobody's found the time to do one yet.  The 
kSimplifiedVariant/kTraditionalVariant data in the Unihan database is a 
starting point, but just that.  It's a pretty hefty job to actually 
determine the full set of variants and, as is occasionally the plague of 
an organization like Unicode, simply hasn't been the done.

(Maybe an ambitious university student with an MA thesis to write…?)
