While that could be defined, it's would be ineffective, as few people will use
it, and one would always have to remember to type that combination in. Plus, if
you work with existing text, it can't be applied. 

No, I specifically asked for heuristic replacement of minus characters between
words with Maqaf, with no special key combination.

I don't mind the CC, but there's not much of a design issue here IMHO. The
design part is all there - same as for minus-to-en-dash, or replacement of <<
>> with guillemets. Just needs a checkbox in the AutoCorrect options dialog and
implementation of the heuristic.
