A *spelling* difference that should be recorded in the sequence
of characters (in some, not yet standardised, way), quite apart
from font issues.

No it cannot. AU spelled with U+0D4C unambigously has two
(visible) parts. AU with only the right part is unambiguously
spelled with U+0D57 (quite regardless of the character name).
This is already very clear, but apparently needs to be pointed out.
