import std.string;
static assert(is(typeof(representation(cast(shared(const(char))[]) "hello")) ==
shared(const(ubyte)))); // Fails

Also `representation` implementation is ugly and documentation tells that it
"Returns the representation type" that is incorrect because it returns a value
as it's a function.
