--- Comment #79 from hmijail <hmijail at gmail.com> ---
I'd like to report a case in which the apparent lack of a way to disable
ligatures very nearly made LibreOffice dangerously useless for me.

I'm keeping my CV in LibreOffice, and generating PDFs from it. Turns out that
for the last few years CVs seemingly tend to be parsed automatically by various
softwares that extract the information from them and pre-filter them
accordingly. And my CV contains a number of keywords that, once turned into a
PDF and extracted as text, are broken: for example, "firmware" -> "frmware".
This might make my CV useless! 

Luckily I found the ":-liga" thing and could apply it everywhere. But it took
me enough to find this that I was already resigned to move (back!) to Word.
