This case (usually called khanta ta) should be handled in a different way in
future versions of The Unicode Standard. As such, it is not a good case to
request ZWJ (and perhaps even a good reason to not include it, according to
Bengalis.)
A similar case are Malayalam 'cillu' (or 'chillu'); while the UTC does not
have a firm position yet like in the Bengali case, there are enough
probabilities it would, to delay decision about including ZWJ based on this
case alone.
I am not saying ZWJ should not be included, just that if you want it to be
included, you should find other cases than those two.
