How do you do manual hyphenation? My attempts have haven't been very 
successful. Inserting a hard hyphen usually doesn't produce a line 
break, even when the following line is very open. The smart hyphen 
doesn't seem to do anything at all (I guess I'm misunderstanding its 
purpose).

Another question - is it possible to anchor a graphics frame to the 
text, so it moves up and down with the text? Currently the only way of 
inserting an equation is via a graphics frame, but these have to be move 
manually when the text reflows.  (Roll on the LaTeX interpreter!)  
Alternatively, is it possible to insert graphics inline, like a glyph?
