Description
I use ERB templates for Ruby on Rails at work. It works by using the following tags to dynamically add information: <%= foo %> <% bar %> I was wondering if I could request these (i.e <%, <%=, %>) as additional ligatures to Fira Code?
I would imagine that the would look similar to the glyphs with the percent circle on the caret side merged with the caret (similar to the <$ and $> glyphs).
As for conflicts, I have started to do some research into this and it seems that this is much more common template tag then I thought.

As all of these are for HTML templates, I suspect if any of these were valid HTML that whatever compiles the templates to HTML would not be able to handle the conflicts.
