I wonder if it would be worth implementing the semantics described
in Wikipedia. Here they are, just for reference:
<quote>
The soft hyphen tells the user agent where a line break can occur.
Those browsers that interpret soft hyphens must observe the following semantics.
If a line is broken at a soft hyphen,
a hyphen character must be displayed at the end of the first line.
If a line is not broken at a soft hyphen,
the user agent must not display a hyphen character.
</quote>
The page you linked in your original post would look great with the soft
hyphens removed. Maybe just remove them for now, and consider using
them as part of word-wrapping at a later date?
