Yeah. Even so, we'll get a default Shepard--but I'm positive Tali won't be romanced on a default Shepard. If I were to lose my save game, I would go ALL the way through ME2 to romance Tali and input into ME3. I kid you not.
You should be able to continue your romance if you already started it, or start up a new one with her in ME3. That seems feasible for all the LI's in ME2, right? Tali especially of course. But that seems the right course to follow for every LI.
The same should be said for any ME1 LI's that they decide to bring back, either continue where you left off, or start up a new LI with that character. I myself won't be deviating from Tali.....ever.
