3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer is when one adds the
word "extrusión" to the custom dictionary, AutoSpellcheck does not
underline the words "Extrusión" and "EXTRUSIÓN" as misspelled.

4) What happens instead is AutoSpellcheck does underline these case
variations and suggests it to be the lowercased version.

WORKAROUND: Add each case variant.

Not a Bug, but a feature?
Seems to be INVALID without evidences for the expected behavior:

1. German Wort "man" is correct, bug "Man" would be wrong, so I doubt that  
assumption "...  does not underline the words "Extrusión" ..." from original 
report is correct, why should spellcheck accept misspelled word "Man"?
IMHO assumption in report only is correct for unchecked preference "Check Capitalization".

2. The "EXTRUSIÓN" problem might be something different. The option "Check uppercase words" seems to mean:
- unchecked option: No uppercase word will be marked as misspelled, even nonsense
  words like "GANOIRIEJKTGTKJTRINZROSAAAAAAAAAA"
- Checked option: onl words known in lowercase or with leading uppercase first 
  letter will be accepted as correct in complete uppercase
So I agree with the assumption, but that seems to be completely broken in 3.4.1, I will file a separate report after some more investigation.

@Christopher:
Can you please add some information concerning my question in 1.?

Rainer Bielefeld:

Unchecking "Check Capitalization" has no impact on this issue.

In Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.5604.6505), if one adds extrusión in
the Custom Dictionary, Extrusión and EXTRUSIÓN are not flagged as
misspelled.
