"plainly wrong", that's a good joke.
Duden (or more precise: the official rules for german orthography §25 - see
rules here: http://www.ids-mannheim.de/reform/ , where the "Duden" is the most
representative dictionaries) represents the uppercase version of ß as SS, and
that's to be considered more than unicode standard.

Of course OOo cannot know as to SS was a ß when converting from upper to
lowercase. Use Format|Character→Font-Effects→Capitals instead. That way only the
visual representation is changed, but the character-info remains intact.

Furthermore: Virtially no font contains the capital ß character glyph ẞ there's
no point in changing characters to one that cannot be displayed on the user's
computer.

For completeness, U+1E9E should be considered in find and replace and when
turning from upper- to lowercase, thus flagging as RFE and since it is rather
easily done, add easy2dev keyword
