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.
