Thank you for your suggestions! The way forward seems clear, so I will re-pot as soon as possible and consider your other hints when I see how tuber and roots are doing. As I wasn't clear in my mail: It is actually standing outdoors, so I was reluctant to diagnose botrytis as I think it should be too cold for it, but it matches all descriptions and my experience with strawberries, and cold may explain why I loose one leaf every week, which seems a slow rate for a full, moist, warm botritis infection. In winter, this is just a very damp region.
