Using klbCellBreak is indeed overkill because conceptually klbLetterBreak would 
be sufficient for 
WE/EE's expectations. The problem was that Graphite seemed to ignore 
klbLetterBreak even when it 
was set as the preferred boundary.

Things such as start/end of line need support from WE/EE. IMHO these engines 
need to insert special 
codepoints so VCL has a chance to know the intent. Using the line break/ draw 
requests itself would 
not contain enough info as WE/EE switch "portions" even for simple attribute 
changes such as the text 
background color. Until Graphite gets these reliable instructions about where 
Writer wants his line 
starts/ends Graphite must disable these special ligatures.

For the topic of ligature splitting/breaking etc. I suggest that Writer inserts 
codepoints such as ZW* to 
suggest/allow or disallow ligature splits. This would solve the problem you 
mentioned and other 
problems in language which like composite words. In these all components of a 
ligature must be from 
the same morpheme.

This is good example of the where the OOo hyphenator can and should be 
extended. AFAIK the 
hyphenator in "lingucomponent" just needs its syllable list extended for it.
