There are several cases where one would want one byte at the 
time; e.g. as an input to another range that produces the utf 
text as an output.

I do agree for e.g. with binary data some data can't be read with 
ranges (when you need to read small chunks of varying size), but 
that doesn't mean most things shouldn't be ranged-based.
