Dear Marcel,
dear LaTeX folks,
Following up on 
https://github.com/reutenauer/polyglossia/issues/529#issuecomment-1050080373 , 
is there in the meantime a way to provide preferences for break points in a 
word?   So far, I could specify only forbidden and allowed word-break points; 
has anything changed? E.g., if I wish to specify how to break all the 
occurrences of Zustandsübergangsfunktion in German, now I write 
\babelhyphenation[ngerman]{Zu-stands-über-gangs-funk-ti-on} in the preamble (I 
use babel ), though I'd like to write something like 
\babelhyphenation[ngerman]{Zu[third preference for a break]stands[second 
preference for a break]über[another third preference for a break]gangs[mostly 
preferred place to break the word]funk[another third preference for a 
break]ti[fourth preference for a break]on}.  For lualatex, a way could be 
David's sketch in 
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/60510891#60510891 . For 
xelatex as well as good old pdflatex and latex, no idea.
Thanks in advance,
Peter
