It requires efficient memory management. Wait, it requires memory 
management? Also the usual tradeoff between space, complexity and 
time, maybe hashtable and CSPRNG. Usually delimited strings are 
simply not implemented as the only reasonable option, but then 
people here say that such highlighter "doesn't support D". So, 
it's not really a problem for highlighter, delimited strings 
simply don't exist there, and can opt in by choosing a different 
highlighter.
