Actually, I use nonbreaking hyphens all the time in my manuscripts (to keep -- dashes from breaking), and need to remember to convert them back at the end.

Could the conversion to epub be made to convert these to regular hyphens? Either the LRF conversion does that already, or the viewer handles it. (I haven't tried in on the Reader yet.)
Works for me in the calibre viewer. (But the fonts for the calibre viewer on windows are different, so probably that's why it doesn't work for you). The conversion of non breaking hyphens will be in the next release.
