Hmm, I still have an issue with the &shy;. They don't appear in 0.4.0, 0.4.1 and the beta's as visible characters, neither in CV or BV. I do see them when I open the document in for example Notepad++.
Since they cause issues on my reader (the famous ?), I want to remove them. Since there are a lot of pages, I would rather use Sigil for this. Am I missing something here?

I can do a S&R by selecting the hidden character, but only solves half my issue. It removes them, but I would like to know that the characters are in the documents and not find out on my reader.
