No, it is already UTF-8. What is surprising is that the tamil-gtk2im package allows correct Tamil entry into all GTK applications. However, the KDE way allows input into all KDE apps and most GNOME and GTK apps except Firefox Thunderbird. This must be a pango issue, as Akash Mahajan has pointed out. In fact, even copying and pasting into Thunderbird and Firefox doesn't display them properly. Thanks.
