Oh, but like I said in my question, I tried that and it didn't seem to work at all!

I have a feeling I might be stuck with this problem, and without a solution for it. Bummer!

PS. Oh, ha ha, I see now why you guys both gave me the answer that I'd already tried. In my original question, I'd said "One alternative that I did try -- instead of allowing hyphenation on certain words -- is to use the method...", but what I really said there was "...is to use the [ampersand+shy] method...", but I guess when I posted that the character entity didn't show up! It was shy.
