Yes, I think so, too. Btw. according to this faq:

  http://www.unicode.org/faq/ligature_digraph.html#Pf1

these are not normalizations but in fact some kind of
second-class ligatures that the unicode people seem to grudgingly
keep around for compatibility reasons (like with precombined
Greek). Is it really wise to have them enabled by default?
