Surely those aforementioned non-initial cases would sometimes find themselves in a piece of all-uppercase text? You'd have found such things in print media even before the advent of computers.
Not everything is upper/lower convertible like ß for example (as far as I know)
At least until 2017, I imagine there are others though.

Sure, but I've never heard of a diæresis being added to a capital letter.
It is on signs when entering L'Haÿ-les-Roses at least. Every letter in French must have a capital version.
Yup. Just checked on Streetview.
