@mao-yining In your expected behaviour video, I don't think that would be p=
ossible (e.g. the ligature staying intact as cursor moves over it). This is=
 because the cursor is rendered as a "cell" just like other text with a bac=
kground. Currently text with different backgrounds are rendered separately,=
 meaning ligatures cannot connect over background boundaries. It could be p=
ossible, but I'm not sure how complicated that would be.
