When checking this I found the problem is not the SvxGetAltSpelling function
(which I suspected to be at fault). Instead it is with the actual implementation
that evaluates that result and does the line breaking.

That has two consequences:
a) If that one is to be fixed it needs to be fixed in each application 
   separately. Thus specific issues for Calc and Draw/Impress are required.
b) I was told the area that is effected by the required change is quite 
   tricky and troublesome to change.

Also it looks to me that the actual problem itself is not about the diaeresis at
all. But about the position of the text to be changed:
When comparing it to alternative spelling in the now outdated German pre-reform
spelling the problem is this
- in German Bäc-ker changed to Bäk-ker when getting hyphenated 
- and in Dutch re-ëel should become re-eel 
The difference is that in the German example the char left to the hyphenation
position changes (which is sufficient for German) where in the Dutch example it
is the one to the right.

The code parts that take care of alternative spellings in Writer are rather old
and were probably implemented for German at that time. No one needed text
changes to the right and thus it was never implemented... :-(
