Hmm well....I always said I wouldn't have one with issues but I have a pony with sarcoids (well, one as the others have gone on their own), he is a good doer, has navicular and had PSD a couple of years ago. He can nap and buck on occasion, does little rears (which I can cope with) if he doesn't like something, not easy to clip and needle phobic, will get out of his field if others have come in and used to be a real door banger but he isn't so bad now. He doesn't like sprays either and hates his mane being pulled.
But he is a sweetie, bags of character, moves well and does well at dressage. lovely jump, brilliant in traffic and easy to pull up in open spaces. Will lead a hack or go behind but can be nappy on his own when going somewhere different.
So I would consider any horse except a full blown rearer that may go over. That's not for me! Or a kicker...I have no time for that, I like to move around my horse and keep myself intact!
