If you have a string that's really ASCII and you're _sure_ that it's only 
ASCII, then I'd suggest simply casting it to immutable(ubyte)[] and operating 
on that with all range based functions. That way, no decoding occurs, and you 
don't have to dup the string. If you want, you could also easily create a 
funtion called something like assumeASCII that did that cast in order to make 
it more idiomatic (similar to std.exception.assumeUnique).
