Follow-up Comment #3, bug #66096 (group groff):

I guess I managed to obscure my own point about dictionaries.

I certainly to don't want to document that this is how hyphenation exception
words are stored.

My point is that, from the user's perspective, unless we give them a reason to
think otherwise, they are free to assume that hyphenation words are stored in
the same way that registers and strings are.

And that they will therefore behave analogously.


.nr a 1
.nr a 2
.hw foo-bar foob-ar


Or equivalently:


.nr a 1
.nr a 2
.hw foo-bar
.hw foob-ar
