Other than being a different color I can't honestly say I can tell a difference with nickel handgun brass. I toss it all in the same bucket and grab them randomly when reloading. The nickel has worn thin enough on some to see the brass underneath, but I haven't experienced any peeling. I also can't honestly say the nickel cases have any more tendancy to split than brass.
