Yes.
If this sequence is not displayed correctly, complain to your software or

Here I disagree. A font does not have to support each and every combining
sequence. If he needs fonts which support combining sequences starting with
a space char he surely should look for those, but that is no reason to
complain about those fonts that dont.
Someone makingg an Indic font should consider this particular concern.
