I notice that with compound words broken across lines protrusion does 
not get applied. This looks pretty rough when there are normal 
hyphenated words in the same paragraph.
WE (exaggerated, but demonstrates the point):
\setuppapersize    [monarch]
    \definefontfeature [default] [protrusion=quality]
    \setupalign        [hanging]
    \setuptolerance    [horizontal,strict]
    \setuphyphenmark   [sign=small]
    \showframe         [text] [text]
    \starttext
    \dorecurse{21}{Multisyllabic||words||separated||by||hyphens. }
    \stoptext
Is this expected behavior? Can it be changed?
Use a normal hyphen and the \setbreakpoints command.
\setuppapersize    [monarch]
\definefontfeature [default] [default] [protrusion=quality]
\setupalign        [hanging]
\setuptolerance    [horizontal,strict]
\setbreakpoints    [compound]
\showframe         [text] [text]
\starttext
\dorecurse{21}{Multisyllabic-words-separated-by-hyphens. }
\stoptext

Perfect, thank you Wolfgang. And it leaves the text much easier-to-read 
as well.
