How would you feel about adding the '/' binary operator and the 
'/=' assignment operator for strings, wstrings and dstrings? The 
operators would behave the same way as they do with 
boost::filesystem::path objects:

In short (and omitting some details) code such as:

string s = "C:\\Users" / "John";

...would be the same as:

string s = "C:\\Users" ~ std.path.dirSeparator ~ "John";
