Dutch hyphenation details poorly supported #3

Open r12a opened 4 years ago

r12a commented 4 years ago

Few browsers so far support hyphenation. When they do, they break correctly in most cases (better on Debian Linux than on Mac OS X, it seems), but they do not use the break opportunities where breaking would cause letters to change (cafeetje → café-tje, autootje → auto-tje) or they do it wrong (skiërs → ski-ers, not ski-ërs).
