Subject: Ignore inline styling hints
Even if the inline styling says nowrap, external styling might override that so it's still nice to have soft hyphens

Applying hyphenation to elements that will never wrap by default is suboptimal, but avoids running into a situation where a user might expect that everything is hyphenated by default but isn't when the default is overridden by a custom user-stylesheet or agent-stylesheet. We choose to be more user-friendly and go for the technically suboptimal solution.
