Line breaking does apply to U+2010. See:

http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr14/#DescriptionOfProperties (search for “Breaking Hyphens” or “2010” here) where it actually says:

“Breaking hyphens establish explicit break opportunities immediately after each occurrence.”

UAX#14 goes on to describe treatment of the various hyphens in section 5.3:
