Targeted to 2.0.4.
Changed to DEFECT, and P2 priority:
"In French, "œ" is a true linguistic ligature, not just a typographic one (like
the fi or fl ligatures), reflecting etymology. It is most prominent in the words
cœur ("heart"), sœur ("sister") and œil ("eye")." (Source:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OE_ligature). Handling ligatures is a competitive
feature, too (MS Office does it).
"However, many documents are prepared either on older systems incapable of
handling this character, by users who do not know how to enter it in their word
processor or by users who can not be bothered using special entry methods to get
it when oe will do. Handwriting generally does not make the distinction between
"oe" and "œ"."
OpenOffice.org is capable of handling French ligatures, and users don't need
special entry method, thanks for the autocorrection tool and the spell checker
suggestions of OOo.
