--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
We already provide the U+2011 Unicode NON-BREAKING HYPHEN via shortcut

<Ctrl><Shift>-

or from main menu Insert -> Formatting Mark menu items.

We also have the autocorrect options to Replace Dash, where input of two
keyboard hyphens will be converted to an U+2014 EM DASH (or into U+2013 EN DASH
for numbers)[1].

An autocorrect replacement of keyboard hyphen (U+002D) with non-breaking 
(U+2011) would cause more grief than it would be worth.

IMHO a change to handling keyboard hyphen is not helpful and a => WF
