So what does the sight impaired person get for phrases that do NEED hyphens, like : double-barreled ? doublebarreled? double barreled?

Seems to me, that program needs to adjust its interpretation based upon context. double<very short new word pause>barreled

I believe the CSS code JUST instructs the render engine (viewer) on how to BREAK words for visual line fit. Those places might not always coded in the book (soft).
