ZWNJ shouldn't be used for implementing அ as delinking symbol in TamilNet99 keyboard #8

The Tamil Nadu Government Order on Tamil Unicode says:
"The ZWNJ (U+200C) shall be treated as an invalid code point in official 
documents except where it is used to create the disjoint form for kssa series 
as in க்‌ஷ (U+0B95,U+0BCD,U+200C,U+0BB7)."

Hence for implementing அ as delinking symbol we shouldn't be using ZWNJ as is 
done currently. An alternative is to remember the pressing of அ after a 
consonant symbol and, use it to disable the combining of any other stroke with 
the previous stroke. (i.e. remember the pressing of அ after a consonant 
symbol and, use it to disable the joining of any vowel with the previous 
consonant, as well as for disabling automatic pulli feature.)
