Description
### Your use case
For example when pasting a username which contains an x surround by numbers, the x is automatically transformed to a multiplication sign which looks strange.
According to [this](https://github.com/rsms/inter/issues/222#issuecomment-574273633) post the solution is to disable contextual alt values (calt), like `font-variant-ligatures: no-contextual;` or `font-feature-settings: "calt" 0;`.
