I think that it would be fine to have a rule added that says "if we're across a barline, and the scale step is the same, but the accidental is different, and the slur is two notes long ending on the current note, display a cautionary accidental in order to avoid confusion with a tie." But I don't think this is a high priority bug. It's simple enough to force the cautionary accidental in this case.
