SOFT-HYPHEN is part of Unicode standard:

HTML4 only hints user agent implementers how to it should behave.

BTW. EPUB 2.0.1: http://www.idpf.org/epub/20/spec/OPS....htm#TOC1.3.4:

Quote:
1.3.4: Relationship to XHTML and DTBook
This specification recognizes the importance of current software tools, legacy data, publication practices, and market conditions, and has therefore incorporated certain XHTML 1.1 Document Type Modules and DTBook as Preferred Vocabularies. This approach allows content providers to exploit current XHTML and DTBook content, tools, and expertise.
It would be nice to have proper handling of SOFT-HYPHEN in Marvin3 like in Kindle, but only kguil is able to fix it, so I want to end this completely unproductive discussion.

The word certain means not everything and not soft hyphens.
