Subject: Re: hyphenation of hyphenated words

non-standard still breaks as

non-stan-
dard

the stan- protruding from the text-block, whilst the rest of the line is
compressed as much as possible... Maybe context thinks, if it breaks at
the hyphen you can't tell that there was meant to be a hyphen, so to be
clear it uses two...?

I can't make much sense of it.
