Comment:

 The purpose of soft hyphen (SHY) is understood, but the name of a tag, how
 could it be break at? like what is the expected thing you are looking for?
 You want to go the `keywoooooooooord` at new line? It is not preserve /
 filtered cause SHY is an HTML! If you look at `wp_insert_term()` function
 which calls `sanitize_term()` and eventually lands on
 `sanitize_term_field()`, it needs to be escaped! A Term name should not be
 formatted!! It has to be only valid names... a soft hyphen doesn't seem to
 be a valid name for a Term!
