I don't understand this - in December, I've made a patch for Tlf
(Thomas had been merged that to master branch), which calculates
the accurate QRG for Tlf (if Fldigi doesn't communicate with RIG,
only Tlf asks Fldigi for the value of carrier on waterfall).

When I made that patch, I've tested the Tlf and Fldigi
communications, and Fldigi can works in LSB and USB mode too.

Note, that in LSB mode (on RIG), the Fldigi can works only in
reverse mode.

I'm afraid this isn't correct.
Anyway, I don't see the relation between Tlf digimode, and RIG
LSB/USB mode...

there is a plan that we'll make a better Fldigi interface for
Tlf, it would be better to drop the current file-through
communication. Hope I can start it soon.
