Asmus, are you including the case where an accented character maps to
two unaccented characters?
e.g. Å to AA or Ä to AE
If that's covered by the same term; but it's not simple
"typewriter/telegraph" fallback.

A question has come up in another context:
Is there any linguistic term for describing the process of removing
accents and diacritics from a word to create its “base form”, e.g. São Tomé to
Sao Tome?
The linguistic term "string normalization" appears not that preferable
in a computing context.
Any ideas?
