A more powerful approach to this issue is described in issue 67500. Indeed, such
an *autoreplace* is a powerful way to automate various writing tasks.

As described here (and in the issue 67500), the replacement list handles only
full words, therefore this needs a workaround/ fix/ enhancement.

A very useful consequence of this feature would be to solve (in one way) issue
4579. Suppose we add this to the replacement list:
"a'" => "ä"
Then "Gra'sser" becomes automatically "Grässer", NO need for special shortcuts.

Of course, a complete solution would involve both this feature AND the shortcut
version, BUT until shortcuts are implemented, this would be fine (and this would
be useful even IF shortcuts were later implemented).

How should this be implemented?
1. fast way: implement a second replacement list,
   where any occurrence of the specified combination
   would be replaced by the new string
2. more powerful: implement wildcards, as suggested for issue 67500
