            Bug ID: 153980
           Summary: Soft hyphen is not shown when it is placed at the end
                    of an inline element
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Text

Test case: http://codepen.io/kizu/pen/bEQNVL

When there is a soft hyphen at the end an inline element and there is a line break at it, the hyphen is not shown. This prevents authors from styling the soft hyphens only, as it is impossible to wrap them into their own element to apply styles, like `mmmmm<span class="soft-hyphen">&shy;</span>mmmmmmmm`.

In other browsers (Fx, Edge) everything works as intended.
