Should I take this to mean that FOP does not implement this, so I
shouldn't bother?
Indeed, see: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html#fo-
property-keep-together
The property is supported only on block-level FOs. You can currently
only prohibit page- or column-breaks, not line-breaks.
FWIW, I've been looking into implementing this on inline-level as
well. AFAICT, it shouldn't be too difficult, but I cannot make
estimations yet as to when I will get around to it.

A more convoluted work around involves building your own font,
which uses "/" and "-" as glyphs for some letter characters.
Eww.. that sounds like a hideous hack (not that you were implying
otherwise). I think it would be a better solution to tweak the file
that defines what chars are valid breakpoints and recompile. Then it'd
at least work with any font.
/A/ better solution maybe, but not really /the/ better solution,
since this would influence the behavior even where one would not
expect this to be the case...
/The/ best solution would be to dive into the code, and implement
keep-together.within-line.
