The newish Gagauz Turkish Latin-script orthography derives from both Turkish and Romanian models. This has led to a peculiar hybrid, in which the cedilla is used for the s and the commaaccent is used for the t. If the Gagauz Turks became interested in stressing their Turkishness, they might decide that both s and t should use the cedilla, but I've not seen any examples of this yet. I don't know of any other languages for which the t-cedilla form might be appropriate, so I've always mapped both U+0163 and U+021B to the same t-commaaccent glyph.
