Problems rendering soft hyphens
Since the bug wizard wasen't working I'll post it here:3 steps
1. Create a text, in HTML, with shy/soft hyphens in it using code(­)
2. set style="text-align:justify" and specify a width e.g. style="text-align:justify;width:200px", I'd advise to also give it a background colour or a border to see the effect better
3. now open the page in Opera and you'll see the error
I made a good example here:
-> http://www.middleton.de/kai/statics/softHyphenDemo.html
Expected to happen
That the justified text should end correctly at the end of its parent element(e.g. a <div>), with the hyphens being inside the parent element.
Actually happens
The hyphens are out side the parent element of the text and sometimes the are rendering problems, also the text sometimes gets rendered incorrectly, meaning the text dose not end at the end of the line but before, although it is justified.
Confirmed, on both counts. The bug wizard is broken and the soft hyphens are outside the border.
Without the border It looks better that way — its called "Optical Margin Alignment" — but I guess its a bug. It would not look good with a border even if there was some padding inside the border.

@Pesala: Thanks for first bit!
But what do you mean about the border, you are talking about the border in the 4th example on my demo page aren't you?
That border is just there to emphasize that the hyphens are outside of there parent element.
Or what did you mean.
