I think what you mean is "soft hyphen" (U+00AD) in Unicode (­ in HTML) [1]. The problem is that this character is not yet treated as it should be in Apache FOP. TextLayoutManager would need to be extended to handle it. Basically, the same Knuth elements need to be generated as for the hyphenation points and the character needs to be recognized as break character. Shouldn't be too hard to implement. Anyone want to try?
