How to find daß -> dass autocorrect entry

(In reply to Dirk W. from comment #5)

As Telesto has detailed in comment 3, you need to choose German as language in
the AutoCorrect Options dialog first (only needed if your LO locale is not
already German), then scroll down to find the daß -> dass entry, see
screenshot.  It's not *buried* at all.  If you can't find such entry in your
system after following the detailed instructions, then it's another bug and
should be fixed.

I don't speak German and have no horse in this race.  But IMO ignoring the
reporter and commenter in bug 131510 (even if we don't have access to the
possible discussion on the mailing list) and insisting that "nobody needs this"
is not a productive way of communication.
