Working on this currently, and I'll use this issue as a place to ask questions. First one:

Is <g type="hyphen"/> a real thing? It only shows up in a handful of places and it looks to me like an accidental conversion of a regular hyphen in the edition (not the source). If you look at P.Dura 26, e.g.

  1. ρ̣η ((hyphen)) δα ((hyphen)) αουαράη

There's no phenomenon I can see that's hyphen-like there.

these are text section separating marks:
"Tirets dans le manuscrit"

In P.Pommersfelden there are similar marks for a slightly different purpose.

Loath simply to delete these. Perhaps find a more pertinent way of indicating the marks.

There is a type "dash". I know tirets are hyphens, but they look more like em dashes to me.

I haven't quite finished, but I was going to propose that <g type="hyphen"/> be rendered in EpiDoc stylesheets as U+035C, a combining character that accurately depicts what appears on the papyrus. This is one of the thornier gtypes I've been tracking and wrangling with James. A good case where we need it is TM 220498.

Hugh: one thing to keep in mind when changing @type to @ref: <g type="filler"/> has both @rend="diple" and @rend="extension". We'll need to preserve this.
