  Those ligatures are usually not part of the liga feature that only activates
the most common f-ligatures; try dlig (discretionary ligatures), or maybe hlig
(historical ligatures), although it's more probably the former.

  You can use a feature file to define your own OpenType features that would
only activates the ligatures of your choice and associate it with a name, say
plig for "Peter's ligatures" (rlig is already used for "required ligatures" in
scripts like Arabic, better not to overwrite it).  See
fonts/fea/context/texhistoric.fea in the ConTeXt distribution for how it's done
for tlig (which is not a standard OpenType feature either).  Send it to Hans
when you're over, so that he can use it too because he's been traumatised by
the st and ct ligatures :-)
