This is what Phobos already does and it has already created more
problems. It was a mistake to do it this way.
But if string was just an opaque(ish) blob with a variety of
accessor properties it would work better then. The big mistake
Phobos made was trying to automatically do something and causing
friction by that automatic thing not being right.
