Which font are you testing with? For me Noto Sans Arabic with notepad++ shows
correct ligature.

This one is using presentation form, am I right? It's 0xfefb for UTF-16 as a
single character representing ligature. My guess is that it's not classified
correctly, I'll need to look into it to see how it should work.

Could you open a new report or two for these two issues? Note that it's
necessary to know exact font you're using.

Now that it works in general with some remaining bugs, I'm going to close this.
