Generally suppress line breaking at hyphens followed by parentheses

It’s not uncommon for me to typeset documents containing words such as "(semi-)automatic" (meaning "automatic or semi-automatic") or "(half-)hourly" (meaning "every hour or every half-hour"). However, typing such a word as-is in a LaTeX document risks ugly line breaks:

blah blah blah blah (semi-
)automatic blah blah blah

I know that I can work around this problem on a case-by-case basis by instead typing the word as mbox{(semi-)}automatic, or by using a macro with this definition. But it would be nice if I didn’t have to remember to do this for every such instance of every such word that might appear in a document.

Is there some code I can put in my preamble that tells LaTeX to never break a line at a hyphen if it is followed by a right parenthesis, but that otherwise preserves normal hyphenation and line-breaking rules?
