Build Identifier: 20110301-1815

To break text into lines the canBreakAfter method is used. This method now checks for whitespace and dashes.

In some contexts, this is not desirable, for instance when building a WYSIWYG (X)HTML editor. In browsers, words are not broken off at dashes.

It would be great if this could be configured with a parameter, for instance an extra wrapping option in ParagraphTextLayout.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a textFlow with some text in it with words with dashes.
2. Set the size of the container to cause line-breaking.
3. Words are broken of at the dashes.
