How would that work in practice?

std.algorithm is highly templated and the big issue are the auto-decoding
primitives in std.range.
We can't remove them easily nor even version them out (see e.g.
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/5513) and no one seems to have found a
good transition path so far.

For now .byCodeUnit is the only available workaround and maybe eventually
RCString gets a thing.
