--- Comment #5 from Dirk W. <dirk.wun at t-online.de> ---
@Telesto: I object for the following reasons:

1. Under Tools -> AutoCorrect -> AutoCorrect Options…, there is no “‘daß’ ->
‘dass’” in the exceptions list, which could be deleted. I had suspected such an
entry at first and wanted to delete it (before I reported this bug). This – and
I stick with “forced” – autocorrection is invisible or buried deeper in the
system – where only programmers have access.

2. - and here I mainly address Ming Hua – NOBODY needs this function – neither
those who use the reformed spelling (because they immediately type “dass”) nor
those who prefer the traditional spelling resp. the latter hinders the writing
flow considerably by the forced autocorrection. Ming Hua writes: “Apparently
some users need it”, and I say, no, not one single user needs it and it cannot
be turned off separately. The only way is to go to Tools -> AutoCorrect ->
AutoCorrect Options… -> Options (tab) and uncheck “Use replacement table” resp.
“[T] AutorCorrect while typing”. However, this also removes all other
replacements that one might like to have, respectively this is not an optimal
solution for something that – I repeat – NOBODY needs.

I implore the programmer (or programmers) who added this new “feature” to
remove it again. Please!!!
