In the Calibre Editor help, you can import a very nice "regex-function" tool which gets rid of all unwanted/incorrect hyphens by checking the validity of each of them with the spelling dictionary. It's pretty efficient.
You'll find it in this chapter:

Of course for discerning Eins-tein and Einstein and other words which are not included in the spelling dictionary, you'll need the main spelling tool. The table presentation makes them easy to spot.
It's very easy to test it: just open an EPUB, introduce some faulty hyphens here and there and ask it to clean the mess... At least, once its work is done, it's fairly easy to take care of the few remaining "inconsistencies" abovementioned since the vast majority of the mistakes have been eradicated.
