Dear list,
when writing compound words I want the second part to be eligible for hyphenation to avoid bad breaks. Therefore, instead of »non-trivial« I write »non|-|trivial«. However, I noticed that when I make dash compound aware it is no longer kerned into the margin. MWE is below. How can I fix this?
Cheers, Henri

Dear list,
I have constructed a better example (and eliminated a grammar error), see below. I think what »|-|« does is essentially »-\penalty\zerocount\hskip\zeropoint«. When I insert this as is the margin kerning is correct. Still, I have no idea how to fix |-|.
Cheers, Henri

Just add
\setbreakpoints[compound]
to the preamble of your documents, and you get both hyphenation and
margin kerning, no need for |-|.

Oh yeah, right! Sorry for wasting your time :/ However, as I only want compounds with a hyphen to be breakable (for now) I came up with my own configuration.
\definebreakpoints[hyphen]
\definebreakpoint [hyphen] [-] [nleft=3,nright=3,type=6,range=yes]
\setbreakpoints[hyphen]
