I've wondered if Mozilla has such thing (auto-hyphenation support) "in mind". Where the document/element language is specified the text layout could benefit from it. The most obvious case is with justified blocks/paragraphs of text where without hyphenation the word spacing could leave very large gaps in between. Of course this could be used in various other places in the application.

It would be nice if there is a public interface for it so third-parties could easily extend this capability for additional languages.

I wasn't sure which group is most appropriate so I crossposted this message and set 'Followup-To: netscape.public.mozilla.i18n'.
