Thanks for the post.
We have been doing this for quite some time with the use of zwnj as you have now suggested, but this is not the proper way. The problem becomes apparent when we transfer the composed text to Linux. A box appears in place of the zwnj.
In windows 7 both the khi,thi, dhi and ର୍ୟ come out fine with Lohit Oriya font without the nj, the problem with the Kalinga font has to be solved at the font level so that the rendering remains true across the platforms.
Incidentally, we have had no problem with any conjuncts in Windows 7 and we use Odia heavily. Please see "Asimasandhani Ramanujan (Odia) NBT.pdf (4.5mb): http://ubuntuone.com/5WFx4nsevFFHn087eaOanS for one of our recent books prepared by us for the NBT with Kalinga font on Windows 7 / InDesign CS6. This is a biography of Srinivas Ramanujan.
Hope you can try to do something about the font.

Nikhil
