As per the discussion on hi-wp village pump, the following words use औं:
औंधा
औंगारी सूर्य मंदिर [1]
औंराडीह गाँव, गुरुआ (गया) [2]
औंकोलोजी (oncology)

Clearly, औं is also used in hindi, and the submitted patch[3] won't solve the
problem.

Also, AUM won't solve the problem either, since that is for आऊं which in itself
is a popular (mis)spelling of the word आऊँ and can be used to write the word
आऊंगा (correct spelling आऊँगा).

Although I want to have an easy input method for inputting ॐ, I am wondering
how much it is actually used in regular text, and if a direct input for it is
needed (or it can be handled in the editing tools shown below the edit-window).
I'll be asking the same at hi-wp discussion [4]. Shantanoo, is it used
regularly in Marathi or rarely?
