=================================================================================
Deprecation: #99454 - Restore visibility for soft hyphens and non-breaking spaces
=================================================================================

See :issue:`99454`

Description
===========

Non-breaking spaces and soft hyphens are now visible in
the rich-text editor to help the editor to identify them visually.

Keyboard shortcuts are now working for non-breaking spaces
and soft hyphens and use more common defaults:

*   :kbd:`ctrl` + :kbd:`shift` + :kbd:`space` for non-breaking space
*   :kbd:`ctrl` + :kbd:`shift` + :kbd:`dash` for soft hyphen

The :js:`SoftHyphen` plugin for the CKEditor is now deprecated and
replaced with a new whitespace plugin that handles
non-breaking spaces and soft hyphens. Loading the
:js:`SoftHyphen` will trigger a console warning.


Impact
======

Including the :js:`SoftHyphen` plugin will trigger a deprecation warning.


Affected installations
======================

All installations that include the :js:`SoftHyphen` plugin manually.


Migration
=========

Replace the module to resolve the deprecation.
