Comment #3 on issue 2458 by [email protected]: Remove small gaps between lyric syllables
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2458
When there is no discernible hyphen between syllables, it might be reasonable to typeset them as one Pango string. This might be particularly relevant in right-to-left languages: one clearly can't let a hyphen/gap gradually vanish since the singing and reading order are distinct.
