Broken support for "soft hyphen" (SHY)
Marvin 2 and also the latest 3.0 has broken support for soft hyphens (SHY):

1) It incorrectly selects word if I want for example check a dictionary entry for a specific word. For example if I try to select a word "hippo-potamus" Marvin marks only the first part of the word "hippo" or the second part of the word "potamus". It is an incorrect behavior. Marvin should ignore "soft-hyphen" and select the entire word "hippopotamus".
2) Searching for a specific word in entire book is also broken. Marvin displays no results if I type in a search input box "hippopotamus".

You can check problems in the attached EPUB book.
