--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vsfo...@libreoffice.org> ---
Not clear we are doing it incorrectly. Key *is* inclusion of spaces.

In Writer:

Two keyboard hyphen dash (U+002d) without spaces are converted to a single
U+2014 (EM DASH)

A single keyboard hyphen dash (U+002d) with spaces is converted to a single
U+2013 (EN DASH).

Two keyboard hyphen dash (U+002d) with spaces is converted to a single U+2013
(EN DASH).

And if you require a specific dash, just enter its Unicode and <Alt>+X convert:
U+002d - HYPHEN-MINUS (on keyboard)
U+2010 - HYPHEN
U+2011 - NONBREAKING HYPHEN
U+2012 - FIGURE DASH
U+2013 - EN DASH
U+2014 - EM DASH
U+2015 - HORIZONTAL BAR

Also, there are autocorrect emoji style entries :---: will convert to U+2014 EM
DASH, and :-: will convert to U+2212 MINUS SIGN

But, I guess we could tweak the edit engine(s) to to replace the two hyphen
dashes into a single U+2014 EM DASH.

Only thing I'd ask is that it be consistent for all the modules.
