Maybe there should be a macro package and/or document that collects tricks
and techniques such as this one that would be part of the groff package?

        www.gnu.org/software/groff/#documentation
                does not list much in the way of documentation

        www.gnu.org/software/groff/manual/html_node/
                could add a "Tricks and Techniques" section that would
                collect gems such as this one. 
   or
                maybe add this trick to
        
www.gnu.org/software/groff/manual/html_node/Manipulating-Hyphenation.html

It, and many like it, deserve a better fate than "lost in folk-lore".
