Those "pretentious" dots are the difference between a chicken coop and a worker coöp. They're to completely different words, and the spelling makes this clear.
I'm anti-snob but I do like it when publications write "résumé" instead of "resume" for a job seeker's summary.
Those extra accent marks make it much more readable. Without them, I always mentally pronounce "employe resume" as "employee rezoom" and then backtrack to correct myself to pronounce it as "employee rayzoomay".
