perhaps I'm just showing my ignorance, but I don't know any examples of invasive bacteria to trust that they'd be a problem in the same way, afaik predator/prey/competition is way more complicated at the micro level.

Actually, that makes this even more dangerous. Normally there isn't much scope for invasive species of bacteria precisely because they've been around for a very long time and because they're everywhere. Odds are something has already evolved to eat something else that's similar. Mirror proteins break this. All of a sudden, nothing can eat these new organisms and survive for very long. It would be something unprecedented.
