This post suggests zero-width spaces instead of discretionary hyphens.
(Actually, it uses hair-width spaces instead of zero-width spaces,
which I think is a bug, but nevermind).
Unfortunately, using zero-width spaces doesn't work in XEP, FOP, or PassiveTeX.
Using discretionary hyphens works in XEP and PassiveTeX, but not in FOP
So I think I'll stick with discretionary hyphens for the moment and leave
an option to turn it off if desired.
Be seeing you,
