You are right, I mixed up 2.3. and 2.2.3.



For 2.2.3, I propose a patch to work around the overfull lines with em-dashes:

As lyx2lyx converts --- and -- to the intermediate representation
\threehyphens and \twohyphens, we can add a "line break opportunity" (ZWSP)
after the literal dashes in the second conversion step:

--- a/src/Text.cpp
+++ b/src/Text.cpp
@@ -506,9 +506,11 @@ void Text::readParToken(Paragraph & par, Lexer & lex,
par.insert(par.size(), from_ascii("---"), font, 
change);
} else {
if (token == "\\twohyphens")
-   par.insertChar(par.size(), 0x2013, font, 
change);
-   else
-   par.insertChar(par.size(), 0x2014, font, 
change);
+   par.insertChar(par.size(), 0x2013, font, 
change); // EN DASH
+   else {
+   par.insertChar(par.size(), 0x2014, font, 
change); // EM DASH
+   par.insertChar(par.size(), 0x200b, font, 
change); // ZWSP
+   }
}
} else if (token == "\\backslash") {
par.appendChar('\\', font, change);


Of course, this cannot restore lost information if converted documents
are already modified and saved with 2.2.

Sorry, think there is some confusion. I was talking about 2.2.3, NOT
2.3.0. Correct me if I'm wrong, but those all look like issues for 2.3.0.

Yes:

* Quote styles are missing the "catchy" names from 2.2 and hard to
  discern on small screen or for the visually impaired.
  
  I like the "language" names back - preferably combined with
  example using the correct Unicode characters, e.g.
  
  »›Danish‹ quotes«
  „‚German‘ quotes“
  «“Italian“ quotes»
  ...
  
* As a stop-gap measure until a proper fix is ready, can we please change
  the misleading font-encoding GUI name "Default" now?

* The special character for a "line break opportunity without hyphen"
  needs translation of name and tooltip.
