-For joining syllables, LilyPond doesn't use the hyphen of the text font but instead draws a simple line with variable length. Its standard vertical position doesn't always fit the proportions of the text font. When using a font with a large x-height, it may be too low.
+For joining syllables, LilyPond doesn’t use the hyphen of the text font but instead draws a simple line with variable length (this limitation is tracked as [https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/issues/1255 issue #1255]). Its standard vertical position doesn't always fit the proportions of the text font. When using a font with a large x-height, it may be too low.
 You can adjust the vertical positioning of the hyphens manually. To get a good result you may want to insert a “real” hyphen for comparision (the l-e in the snippet).
