Here's a little extra color on the subject.  This is from the XEP User Guide at http://www.renderx.com/reference.html#Linguistic_LineBreaking

If the hyphenate attribute is set to "true" and all hyphenation conditions (hyphenation-push-character-count, hyphenation-remain-character-count, etc.) 
are satisfied, then line-break is permitted after a soft hyphen (U+00AD). A soft hyphen at the end of a line is replaced by the text specified in the 
hyphenation-character attribute; all other soft hyphens are suppressed.

To me, that says lines can break after soft hyphens ONLY if hyphenate="true".  And that is consistent with the behavior I get.

Am I interpreting this wrong?  Do you get a different behavior?
