Sounds good, but I think it would be good to also make sure the most
common version is there.

E.g. if a word has versions with all of 0, 1 or 2 dots, and the 1-dot
version is most common it would be good if that was in there too, and
listed first. (There is no algorithmic way to turn a 2-dot word in to a
1-dot word.)
(If the 1-dot version is unusual, no need to add it I think.)

But, anyway, I imagine this is a very rare case.
