Hi Christoph, after some head banging I think I have managed to make the hypehenation / soft-hyphenation splitting work
for both single fragment and multiple fragment paragraphs.
I have made new packages 3.5.43 which can be found here
https://www.reportlab.com/pypi/simple/reportlab/
it would be great if you could check and see if it works for you. During the work I discovered a number of bugs related
to hyphenations in paragraphs which get split (for layout reasons). The reconstructed paragraphs were not as they should
be. One of the extreme cases occurs when a paragraph is split and the last word of paragraph 1 has been hyphenated.
splitting at such a point should be avoided, but our layout is too greedy to take that into consideration. In that case
the hyphen has to be left on the word.
