IMO protected (nonbreaking) hyphens would be the best thing for us. Generally switching line breaks along hyphenation off is not a good idea, because we also have very long hyphenated compounds that then would leave big gaps in the typesetting.

The question now is which packages do support nonbreaking hyphens and which notation to use.



Hi!

Menu items are generally taken from .desktop files. There is nothing
that a translator can do with such strings. It is a bug in software. \n
and <br/> does not usually help here.

Programming engineers should take into account hyphenation in alphabetic
languages (or switch it off) and no hyphenation in hieroglyphic ones. It
is not an easy task.

I think it is better to file a bug on this.

Best regards,
Yuri
