Apart from the problems already listed, namely:
- newton rings (you will definitely want the anti-newton-glass type, IMO)
- possible degradation of image due to extra surfaces

Gepe makes a full line of glass slide mounts (both regular and

the circles/ weird shapes are 'newtons rings'
which are interference patterns from glass/film surfaces meeting
very well known (google it to find out more)
use anti newton mounts when you get these
