For me it make more sense to transliterate a capital letter to all capital
letters, to ensure words with only capital letters look sane. For example
SØRING would end up like SOERING, not SOeRING. Sure, if the capital letter is
the first one in the sentence, it would make more sense to use Øvelse ->
Oevelse,
but I suspect special norwegian characters at the start of the sentence
is less common than capital special norwegian letters in an all capital word.
Most Norwegian words do not start with æ, ø or å. :)
