I'm planning to do this in the lexically best way. My set of possible characters consist of the full alphabet (a–z and A–Z) and of the typical Latin 1 Umlauts, like Ä, ö, ß, and also characters from other Latin 1 languages like à, á, â, ã.

28. The German alphabet (in German "Deutsches Alphabet" or colloquial "A-B-C") is a variation of the Latin alphabet and includes 26 capitalized letters (same as in English) plus the umlauts (Ä, Ö, Ü) and (only) in Germany and Austria the "scharfes S" (ß). The ß ist not part of the alphabet in Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
The German Windows style guide says "On 29th June 2017, the capital ẞ (ß – ẞ) has become an official letter in German orthography. It can be used to replace the capital “SS” in words that are written in capital letters and use the “SS” as a replacement for the capital ẞ.
