    It may be a typographical problem, such line breaks are undesirable in
    the Czech and Slovak typography. On the other hand, it is possible to
    add \XeTeXdashbreakstate=0 to polyglossia for such languages so that
    problems should not occur.

Indeed.  Presumably this is long solved for 8-bit tex (and luatex, if
anyone cares about luatex and C/S).

My basic thought was, why should xetex be different in this regard from
the other engines?  It seems philosophically wrong.
