ISHY/SIHY is especially useful for encoding (German) noun compounds in wrapped titles, e.g. on product labeling, where hyphens are often suppressed for stylistic reasons, e.g. orthographically correct _Spargelsuppe_, _Spargel-Suppe_ (U+002D) or _SpargelâSuppe_ (U+2010) may be rendered as _Spargelâ¤Suppe_ and could then be encoded as _Spargel<ISHY>Suppe_.
Can you provide examples where this happens
in text that is not fixed layout, that is, a product website,
rather than a product label? For fixed layout, you cannot, in
principle, know that there wasn't a regular space used (or two
separate text boxes, or any other means to get the effect).
