Is there a tweak/override that can be applied which will force a particular
lyric hyphenEvent to always appear show its hyphen (moving lyrics/notes around
if needed)? I’m trying to deal with hyphenated words (“loving-kindness” in
this particular example) and the hyphenEvent hyphen disappears under some
circumstances if I use it exclusively and manually inserting a text hyphen into
one of the syllables makes for an inconsistent double hyphen in others:
\version "2.20.0"

\new Voice = "mel" { g' g' g' g' }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { lov -- ing -- kind -- ness }

\new Staff

\new Voice = "mel" { g'( f') g'( f') g'( f') g'( f') }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { lov -- ing- -- kind -- ness }
