--- Comment #15 from Seán Ó Séaghdha <[email protected]> ---
Returning to the document that originally inspired this bug report, I’ve found
an even more annoying case.

When applying Ruby text to a hyphenated word, the ONLY way to centre text over
the word is to first delete the hyphen. The segments APPEAR to group together
in the dialog box, but in the document the ruby will appear over the first
segment.

The seemingly random way punctuation characters are handled is very poor.

It would be really nice if this bug could get some attention.

There seems to be some kind of assumption that this is some unusual case. While
Ruby text is something that’s essential for Japanese, that does not mean that
phonetic glossing is some kind of misuse of the feature. Glosses in
International Phonetic Alphabet (above or below text) are not at all unusual in
linguistics.

The current state of this feature reflects badly on LO as a serious piece of
software.
