Which SWORD frontends (if any) correctly handle the soft hyphen (U+00AD) to
break up big words when necessary? 
See  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyphen#Hyphens_in_computing

"When flowing text, a system may consider the soft hyphen to be a point at
which a word may be broken, and display a hyphen at the end of the broken
line; if the line is not broken at that point the hyphen is not displayed."
