What is the string length in semantic meaning for a ligature? For example,
when we impose a length(str) function to them?

Are all the ligatures using the same rule? Or different according to
different scipts of Arabic, Latin, Devanagari, Syriac, etc?

What else if the ligature itself has its own code point, for example, Latin
Ligatures: U+FB00 to U+FB06?

thanks,
