Spelling reform got rid of quite a lot of the use of ß in (German) Standard German, didn't it? As a German learner, I actually quite like the eszett, as the ß is a very obvious hint that the preceding vowel (if "monophthongic") is long. > Capitalisation in Unicode for German locales is just a headache, and this really doesn't help. Huh, if anything doesn't this make it easier? Replacing one code point (ß) with two (SS) when capitalizing seems like a bigger headache.
