Context: participant of a workshop trying to create a Lexeme in Tamil (ta): L7351
Creating the Lexeme went great, but while adding the first Form, a problem occurred.
Strangely, when I tried to reproduce later, the bug didn't occur again, and I could save the full representation (copy-pasted from the lemma).

Someone just reported this on Telegram too, also for Tamil.
It seems it happens when using the input tools in ULS. It's not necessarily only the first character, it sometimes incorrectly thinks that no text has been entered at all, or sometimes saves multiple characters but not all of them. It affects Special:NewLexeme, lemmas, glosses and form representations.
To reproduce:
Expected behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட" as the lemma
Actual behaviour: The lemma field is cleared and the form complains that the lemma can't be empty.
Before and after pressing enter:
Expected behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட ட" as the lemma
Actual behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட" as the lemma: https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Lexeme:L2262
Some workarounds are to press space at the end or to copy and paste the text.

I can't reproduce this any more after Nikki's fix from last year was merged. Please reopen if I'm mistaken.
