Hungarian needs hyphenation. Hyphenation has some more complex rules (handling compound words, digraphs, rules on repeated letters expressing emphasis-like longer sounds, etc.). Hungarian does not use break opportunities when digraphs are duplicated. E.g., in "Összeg" the "ssz" is a shortened form for "szsz", i.e., a double "sz" digraph; when hyphenating, one could do a "Ösz-szeg" which Gecko doesn't do. That being said, it is a bit of an edge case and people often do what Gecko does.
Tests & results: Hungarian hyphenation is supported by Gecko, but not by Blink or Webkit.
More systematic tests are needed to ascertain whether Gecko handles everything (such as the digraphs mentioned above).
Priority: Marking this as advanced, since although it could be argued that hyphenation is actually a basic need.
