What a nonsense. Nobody wants this.

Of course "ss" continues to be used - not only in swiss german.
This is about the default for case-mapping.
uppercase "ss" was, is, and will ever be "SS".
But the uppercase of "ß" should now be "ẞ". And it only matters in
automatic text processing, to prevent "ß" from beeing changed to "ss" -
by some stupid case-insensitive filesystem or whatever.
