The fonts released under the new TUNE have those characters.  It could 
be possible to have a new scim module to make use of those characters.  
The typewriter layout has provisions to type ணா by entering z, h and 
currently, typing Z also has the same effect.  Typing Z ought to output 
the old ணா.

Btw, is there a list of Tamil characters that are never used?  Say for 
instance ஙௌ, ஙூ etc are seldom used.  If the frequently used Tamil chars 
are less than 128, then those could be added to the existing allocation, 
and the remaining ones may be listed as Tamil -Additional in the BMP.
