One experience I had when using this, was it hosed our "homegrown"
monitoring routine. The space calculations our sql script used
(dba_free_space and dba_segments) to let us know if we had room to
extend were out of whack, so I had to convert back to DMT. Later I
recreated the tablespaces/tables using LMT's with uniform extent
sizes.

Nothing critical, but it should be noted for your production monitoring.
