The reason for this behaviour was voluntarily made because of
a) URL like www.wissenschaft-online.de 
and text like
b) wer-auch-immer or ready-to-go  which happen to get use in regular text to tie
several words to a singular expression/meaning.

If the dashs would be part of words and e.g. "auch" would have been misspelled
like the whole 3 word construct would be highlighted by the spellchecker. And if
it were an even longer expression like this it would be hard to see where the
actual error is. By breaking words we gained the possibility to check these kind
of expressions correctly and to point only to the mispelled word.

The problem could not by solved by the spellchecker even if it were to break up
the 3 word construct by itself since the API for spellchecking does not allow to
identify only a part of the text as being wrong. And thus even if the
spellchecker would find out that only the second word is wrong there is no way
to let the UI know about this.
Also one does not know if a specific spellchecker would be able to break up the
construct on it's own or not.

We hope to improve here when we have a grammar checking API that works on whole
sentences or even a complete paragraph. Also it is a way old request for
enhancement to not spellcheck URL's.
