Just to clarify the terminology, ligatures don't have to join the
letters they're a part of, they basically just refer to letters next
to each other that were designed together and whose 'boxes' overlap.
So there's no need to distinguish between "connected" and
"unconnected" ligatures; they're all just ligatures.
