    I've run every test I can think of to resolve this instance, but am
    unable to come up with a solution.
    In the German language there are terms which can be written with
    multiple preceding atoms and one common succeeding atom.
    The prefixes are separated by a hyphen followed by a forward slash. For
    arguments sake we will use the example Luft-/Ölfilter (Air/Oil filter).
    Now if this needs to break when rendering it will automatically break
    after the hyphen instead of after the slash.
    My question is how would I get this to break after the slash.
    I've exhausted all the combinations using non-breaking hyphens,
    zero-width joiners, etc.
    I've investigated modifying the hyphenation library but have been
    unsuccessful in finding the solution.
    If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
