 I just heard from MM:

There are no planned changes to hyphens in Finale 2008. They should function just as they did in Finale 2007c.

MM left out a word. This should read:

There are no planned changes to hyphens in Finale 2008. They should function INCORRECTLY just as they did in Finale 2007c.

To be fair, they only function incorrectly in certain situations in Fin2007c, so while your statement is true, it's not the whole truth, where MakeMusic's statement is the whole truth: where they functioned correctly in Fin2007c, they should still function correctly in Fin2008, and where they functioned incorrectly in Fin2007c, they will still function incorrectly in Fin2008.

I just entered a work complete with lyrics and with hyphens in Fin2007c and all the hyphens worked just fine. But there were no melismas and so each syllable with a hyphen only appeared under a single note, thus no need for multiple hyphens which is where the hyphen-bug rears its ugly head.
