That sounds interesting, I was not aware such a thing existed. When looking into it in Calibre's editor, I also noticed there is also a word joiner (U+2060) which also seems to work for the same purpose, though it has one caveat: when the dash is attached to the preciding word with WJ, the editor thinks it's a spelling mistake, whilst ZWJ passes.
It's a bit hackish I suppose, since it involves inserting invisible control characters into the text, but if it's not possible to change the way Koreader renders dashes, it's one possible solution... at least for extreme cases of dash usage.
