And yet... wouldn't it be so cool if, since the editor is smart enough not to show "invisible" characters, was able to search ignoring them?

Yep, I was already doing that, actually. Since it is so simple (and quick too) to hypenate and dehypenate books, it doesn't really matter that the editor is not able to behave like I wrote above.
For sure, it is easier than using a regex like the one you sampled for every word I need to search!
