Hyphenation example needed #32

Icelandic hyphenation may still need tuning especially in citations. An example of \hyphenation{} and \babelhyphenation{} would be instructive.

We should consider updating to polyglossia over babel. Icelandic support is poor in general because nobody works on it.

I'll have to look into that. It probably doesn't change much: I don't use babel macros in the latest version.

Another issue is that icelandic hyphenation patterns may not be loaded at all, depending on your latex installation. I realised that the package texlive-hyphen-icelandic was missing on my machine even though I have texlive-babel-icelandic.
