Ah. Searching the documentation of unaccent for the word ligature, I
found where this is mentioned. But at the top of the page, it says
only "unaccent is a text search dictionary that removes accents
(diacritic signs) from lexemes". Perhaps we should add a mention of
ligature expansion there as well.
