I spent a lot of time to get knowing the correlation
between the two things (natbib x hyperref), and when a
got knowing this I just thought: sure, if one compress
the reference citations some hyperlinks will be lost.
But for the result I'm interested, the best choice is
just compress together with the hyperlinks.

I think you could (to make user's life easier) or put
a option (together with all the others), 

\usepackage[hyperlink&compress]{natbib}

or in the easier way do a coment in the documentation
about the existence of hypernat.

\usepackage{hypernat}
