Currently, the problem is that ereaders don't consistently support soft hyphens. Whether or not it would be "easy" to add the Tex hyphenation routine to readers, authors and publishers should be able to establish specific hyphenations for unique words--character and place names, scientific or magical terms, neologisms that haven't been added to the protocols yet, and so on.

Sure, for specific words. But not for every word that could possibly have a hyphen. That's what I was disagreeing with.
