Not exactly nightmares, but the Tamil case does
cause some mapping discomfort.

About three out of five 7bit/8bit encodings for Tamil
have these two Unicode codepoints unified. And at
least one of the dis-unified ones did the dis-unification
exactly for Unicode interoperability.

So in effect, Unicode handling of this case, may actually
change Tamil use - I've already seen proposals to
a script reform dis-unifying the glyphs.

Peter Jacobi
